I
finished work last week. I took a flight out to San
Diego on Sunday morning and arrived there at 10am.
While landing I saw lots of navy ships. So when I met
my friend Dave, I said 'Lets go to a battleship.' Sure
enough one of them was a aircraft carrier/ museum. It
was fun playing around with all the Navy equipment.
We then went sea kayaking for around 2 hours and went
out to a bar with a friend of his. What was supposed to
be a screwdriver actually was Vodka with a little
orange juice.
The next day we went to Tijuana (the most boring place
on earth). Mexicans trying to sell medications,
strippers, dinner and blankets- a grand time for all.
But, I have to say that out of the main tourist
streets, the people were very nice and friendly. It
took 3 minutes to pass into mexico and over 2hrs to
leave because thy asked everyone on every tour bus to
get off and be interviewed/ID scanned individually and
bags were X-rayed. (YEA- real fun!)
The third day we went tot he WIld Animal Kingdom, which
was all Savannah animals of African origin. And then we
went tot he famed San Diego. I saw lots of animals,
birds copulating and baby gorillas breast-feeding. So
it was real fun.
Photos are up.
I guess this blog has turned into a monthly deal.
I am winding down with teaching high school. I have just a few days of proctoring left. I have to formulate an Anatomy final and grade over 50 regents of various subjects.
iTunes is not playing. I received my housing assignment and will be moving in on the 29th of this month, only a few days after I return from San Diego.
I went to the city today with a friend of mine who is doing the New York City Teaching Fellows for this year (and a few to come). I showed him around manhattan and it was a grand time for all. The Nintendo store was real fun but they didn't have the machine that laser engraves a DS, like this. I was gonna do it! Get the one where it is filled with mario mushrooms. *sigh*
Looking forward.
