San Diego Full of Surprises

A stick insect may not be what you expect when you pull into the mobile station- but when the opportunity presents itself, it sure is fun to have a camera handy. Obilan, Amy, and Myself found our way to San Diego this past weekend with the help of our new friend TomTom. On the way down, we stopped in Temecula for a few wine tastings. While Napa and Sonoma get all the credit, Southern California can be home to some fine wines. I find that Syrah's from Southern California tend to be very tasty, if a bit spicy (which I like).

We met up with the Rambler and Handsom Hubby (more on that tommorow), and had a fantastic dinner and drinks out in the Gas Lamp, Gas Light, Gas Lantern -whatever-district. So, in Honor of the Rambler- here are a few things I learned:

Lesson 1- Just because they let you throw toilet paper at other patrons doesn't mean they don't have bathroom attendents.

Lesson 2- You can dodge pushy bathroom attendents by washing your hands until the next guy is finished with his business, then slip out while the bathroom attended is busy with the other customer.

Lesson 3- Toilet paper, when thrown, travels much further when wet.

Lesson 4- You get in trouble for dipping your toilet paper in the ice bucket.

Lesson 5- When you order a 40oz. beer, it comes in an ice bucket.

Lesson 6- Only order 1 40oz beer- two is too many.

Lesson 7- Meeting up with old friends and throwing around toilet paper is a surprisingly good way of catching up.

Lesson 8- Don't try this at home.

And, below this post you may notice I took some more pictures- Enjoy!
