At a stop light in back of a truck full of tortillas! You can see a police car on the right.
It really got dark and rainy as I headed down Washington Street
Straight ahead is an old brewery
Finally made it to Busters in Seaport Village to meet up with Jamie. I started things off with a cup of coffee and she had a delicious looking hot chocolate.
Oh, yummy!
Here is my niece Jamie about to dig in...
...to a delicious order of french toast with toasted coconut and bananas.
Yes, that's me eyeing up what's on my plate...
...Eggs Benedict!
Surprisingly the weather had cleared up when we left the restaurant BUT just for the record it did get overcast once again and the temperature cooled.
Look at these gorgeous flowers and a beautiful blue sky.
There are so many beautiful photo ops, here are a few
One of the many plaza's that dot the village
Cerveza, anyone!
Love this sign
Here's a store called Urban Lounge which features a lot of fair trade items.
This isn't such a great shot but here is a photo of the USS Ronald Reagan across the bay.
In the distance towards the left is the Coronado Bridge.
Let me take you into my favorite store at Seaport Village. It's Upstart Crow and besides books and great lattes, they got lots unique merchandise.
From fun jewelry...
...to the expected tchotchkes!
A take on soap on a rope, how about candles on a rope
Pretty little tea pot
A selection of teas
Love this mug!
Really?
Ok, remember my last post where I found that cute kitty mug? I did go back to Marshall's to pick it up and did you happen to guess what the price was? I was pleasantly surprised!
Yes, only $2.99 so I did pick it up!
Have a great rest of the week!
Oh that was fun! . I have never seen candle on a rope! That was a good buy on the kitty mugs Bonnie. I would have thought they were more than that... Thank you for taking me along. You and your niece look great!
ReplyDeleteHave a good week.

How lovely to go out for breakfast and shopping with two beautiful ladies! There's so many pretty things where you live, gorgeous architecture, stunning greenery, marvellous merchandise and don't even get me started on that scrumptious fayre.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing. xxx

BONNIE!!! What fun, and as always , you look stunning! I am so glad that the weather finally started to cool down! We are having a gorgeous fall, but warmer than usual! It will change soon enough, however!

That looks like country ham on your eggs benedict! My favorite breakfast--well, I also like country ham on biscuits. In fact, I'm heading down to Virginia in a few weeks to get some--ham and biscuits.

Hi there-what a wonderful time you had and really lovely pictures too! Hope you have a great weekend my dear! x
ReplyDeleteBONNIE!!! Oh I knew you would be moved by the boots...and your niece must have looked smashing! I will forever love this era for the music, the fashion, and the slightly innocent age of discovery....I don't know if we can say that about this age, but the sixties ROCK ON! So good to see you dearest. My work is scary busy; I hardly have time to think!
ReplyDeleteHave a great evening, Anita
it looks like you had a wonderful day..my kind of day! A great breakfast, some sight seeing and of course, shopping!! Jaime and you look marvelous in your pictures and I am loving your kitty mug. Next time can I come along?!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend, my friend!
XO,
Janie
Looks like you guys had a great time (as a matter of fact I'm pretty hungry after seeing that yummy food:). It's been cool and sunny here lately which we are enjoying!

Crikey,the tortilla truck really has me going.I'm so jealous of all the Mexican deliciousness that surrounds you.If I saw that tortilla truck here,I'd run it off the road and then abscond with it!!I bet they are corn ones too.Corn tortillas are hard to get here,and expensive when you do find them.I keep meaning to make some,but I'm too bloody lazy!
ReplyDeleteAll those cushions are fab!!And I love that mug too!AND the kitty mug! Fab pix,doll!
