Ocean Beach

After Sunset Cliffs, I made my way to downtown Ocean Beach where I found the hippies and their hangouts. Check it out....





This burger place had a huge line down the sidewalk. I gotta check it out sometime.




For those Floridians reading this... I was happy to find a Wings Souvenir Shop. Finally decent SD souvenirs! Never thought I'd actully be happy to see one of these places, but I've had a hard time finding SD souvenirs.

The beach hippies are sitting on the wall to the right. I didn't get a good picture of them all.

Sunset Cliffs

This past Saturday I ventured down to Ocean Beach aka "O.B.". Ocean Beach is known as the area where all the San Diego hippies live. I had yet to see a San Diego hippie, so I was curious.

I didn't have a direct map to get there, I just had a general map that said it was north of Point Loma (where I found the Real World house ). I drove to Point Loma and just kind of figured it out from there. At one point, I was driving through a neighborhood and drove up a hill thinking it was the general direction of the ocean. Sure enough over the crest of the hill, was the ocean. At the bottom of the hill was a small park like area called Sunset Cliffs. Too bad I was a bit early for Sunset. Here are some pics.

The view from the hill.

I am fascinated by surfers

Stay tuned for the post of my Ocean Beach visit....

San Diego On The Water... part deux of deux

Here are some pics of a cool statue and the area next to the USS Midway. I had lunch at a seafood place around here. It had a dining patio literally over the water.

San Diego On The Water

After Harbor Island I went into downtown San Diego. Along the water was this here little boat, also known as the USS Midway.

Harbor Island

After Point Loma, I made a quick detour to Harbor Island. It's really not much of an island, but it has some nice views of downtown.











Check back tomorrow for more San Diego on the water pics. I'll have pics of an aircraft carrier.
