Birch Aquarium and Whale Watching
Birch Aquarium at Scripps is the public exploration center for the world-renowned Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UC San Diego. Perched on a bluff overlooking the Pacific Ocean, the aquarium showcases fish and invertebrates from the cold waters of the Pacific Northwest to the tropical waters of Mexico. My family and I particularly enjoy […]

La Jolla Rough Water Swim – Sept. 12, 2010
I wasn’t planning to post on this blog today, but you know what John Lennon said: “Life is what happens to you while you’re busy making other plans.” Today’s agenda changed when some Facebook friends commented on a photo of the Rough Water Swim on my FB profile page this morning. When I looked at […]

Where NOT to eat in La Jolla
This won’t make me popular with a couple of local restaurateurs, but I have had two very disappointing meals in the village recently. Until they mend their ways (hire a new chef?), I suggest you avoid Bistro 101 and Alfonso’s – both restaurants are on Prospect Street. I don’t like reporting negative experiences, but the […]
Artful Cuisine at the Museum Cafe
One of the most popular lunch spots in the village, the Museum Cafe offers delicious salads (shrimp and papaya is my favorite), great soups (such as country vegetable), grilled items, and creative sandwiches. As the name suggests, the cafe is located at the La Jolla branch of the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego (MCASD) […]
B&B On the Sea
April 2012 update – B&B On the Sea has been sold and is now a private residence. If you want romantic lodging with one of San Diego’s best views – you can’t do better than this historic cottage on a bluff overlooking the beach in La Jolla. In contrast to a hotel, this cozy spot offers […]
