It’s a holiday weekend. We have four glorious days off. What to do? San Diego! What better way to enjoy Independence Day than in cooler weather. So, we packed up the car and headed south. But first, food.

After a hearty meal, the kids settled in for a nap as we got back on the road for San Diego. Here’s our view for the next couple of days.

After checking in and unloading the car it was time to head out. We had dinner reservations at Island Prime at 6:00 PM and we didn’t want to be late. The kids always love “steak” for dinner and I was looking forward to some surf and turf. Dinner was amazing, the view was spectacular the service was fantastic. This is a great spot for a date, a family meal or a special occasion. We enjoyed oysters on the half shell, popovers, prime rib, filet mignon, creamed corn, mac and cheese, and potatoes au gratin and a little bubbly. The meal was fab and we were stuffed.

We were so full after dinner that we decided to head over to Seaport Village so we could walk around a bit. We really, really needed to walk off dinner. So we walked and somehow we ended up at Ben & Jerry’s. I have no idea how that happened. 😉
