Just looking at the view









Famous Star of India with Halloween sails out.




20 white roses arrangement I made for us....


View down the balcony of the pool, pretty cool picture huh......



One of the 40 or so art "trees" which line about 1/4 mile of Harbor drive, they are quite interesting and all by different artists, they are auctioned off then new ones are installed each year.



Cruise ship leaving the Harbor....it was a beauty, sorry I didn't snap a picture sooner, but didn't realize it was going away!


That's our hotel room, in the second building, first full floor you can see, just to the right of the one whose door is open. The elevator is glass all around to get full view value.





What a beautiful view of the San Diego Harbor. A lot of these pictures were taken off the 10th floor balcony of our Holiday Inn were we stayed for two nights this October as part of our 20th anniversary celebration.






We ate dinner at Ruth Chris Steakhouse, right next door, then at Anthony's Fish Grotto right across the street, then the various deli offerings in and around the hotel. It couldn't have been more perfect.

Of course, there was more than just eating, it was just great to relax and be together, we also walked along Harbor drive taking in all the sights, then took a pedicab when our legs gave out.







Dreaming of owning this million dollar yacht some day.....












Sculpture of famous picture, installed right next to the USS Midway which is now a museum. Just to the left of our hotel.


After dinner at Anthony's, picture taken by chef as he was heading home!









We plan to visit often just for day trips, there is something special about San Diego Harbor!
