Patsy started the day with breakfast outside with the squirrels and then later her mood changed to a little bit of ire at the unforgiving park volunteers who proceeded to remind us 3 times that it was actually 3 minutes past twelve. Oh my God, check out time was noon, imagine! The parks was at least 80% empty.
After finally leaving this State Institution, we proceeded to a parking lot next to a very popular surfing location where nobody harassed us and the cost was zero. In Del Mar parking lots surfers actually change into their wet suits holding up only little towels. There was also many other attractions such as guitar playing and tight rope practice between the trees. Flocks of Pelicans dazzled us with their synchronized flights along the cliffs and through the waiting surfers.
We proceeded along the coast until we reached La Jolla Cove. There below a very large Life Guard lookout station many families of seals were basking in the sand and trying to bed down for the night. Some with attitude and a very difficult baby seal who was determined to be nocturnal and stay in the sea returned to the sea but got nudged repeatedly back to shore by an anxious Mom. This performance was showcased against the setting pinks and reds of the sun and the crashing waves of the Pacific.
