The famous Hotel Del Coronado. It was built in the late 1800's and has hosted numerous presidents and celebrities. Thomas Edison, Charlie Chaplin, and Babe stayed there.

Coronado Beach
A couple of weeks ago I took a short stroll along Coronado beach.
The famous Hotel Del Coronado. It was built in the late 1800's and has hosted numerous presidents and celebrities. Thomas Edison, Charlie Chaplin, and Babe stayed there.

San Diego Pics
Before my Segway tour, I had about 20 minutes to take some pics of downtown SD from the Coronado shore. As I mentioned in a previous post, it is difficult to ride a Segway and use a camera at the same time, so I'm glad I took time beforehand to take take these.
These last ones are testing the 10x zoom on my new camera.

San Diego by Segway
My bestest friend Janice got me a Segway tour of San Diego for Xmas. So Awesome! There were 3 other people on the tour. They were really nice. We took a hands-on 30 minute lesson on how to ride it and then started our tour. It was super easy to get the hang of and so much fun.
The tour was of a peninsula across from downtown San Diego called Coronado. It was a really cool place where apparently rich people live. All the houses are different, due to a building restriction code and they haven't been aloud to build anything over 4 stories tall in over 40 years. There are only about 4 buildings that are tall and even they are only 20 stories or less.
Here is round one of my pics. These are the ones I took while on the Segway. I will post a video I took while on it and some more pics of downtown later this week.
After my last post, you'd think I'd have the sense not to post a picture of myself on the internet. But apparently, I have no sense or shame. So here's me on my super fun segway, with a helmet nonetheless.
One thing about a tour on a segway is that it is really difficult to take picture while on it and stay balanced.
Our guide was a retired Navy guy who totally reminded me of Wilson the neighbor from Home Improvement. He was great...and he didn't have to wear a helmet.
Some of the areas we rode through we kinda crowded and people we passed stared and commented.
