Coronado Island

Filed in Beach, family

We couldn’t let my family leave without seeing Coronado Island.  Off we went and enjoyed part of a beautiful day checking out the sights and letting the kids play on the dunes.  Honestly, there wasn’t too much sand playing on the kids part due to the temperature of the sand.  We tried to convince my parents to book the haunted room in the Hotel Del, but it’s booked out several years…maybe another time.

I finally picked up this hat that I have had my eye on for quite some time. I have nver been able to find an excuse to get another one.  A week at the beach was excuse enough for me.

Hitting the Pier over in Oceanside was a must.  Several fisherman had catches of stingrays and other ocean critters flopping around on the pier as we strolled that peaked a curiosity from a few of us.  How can you not stop to sneak a peak?(I don’t know why I have that expression…mid-sentence maybe?)

The sightseeing concluded with a trip to the San Diego temple.  I almost added the picture where everyone was actually standing still and brightly smiling, but that just wouldn’t be the real us.  This is a much more accurate representation.  Although I have seen it countless times, I never cease to be awed by its beauty and overcome by the peace that it brings.  I love having the daily comfort that my family and friends will always be with me – now and forever.
