Valentine's Day

Let me begin this post with a rant: THE SAN DIEGO AIRPORT IS A MESS! AN ABSOLUTE MESS! They are not prepared for the volume that they are receiving and it shows. Do not fly to San Diego. If you do, you have no one to blame but yourself as I warned you.

Moving on. Saturday we left way too late for the airport in Denver. After we parked in long-term parking for a 3 day weekend trip (we're cheap like that and wanted to save the $3 a day) we nearly missed our flight. We didn't miss it though and we did not have to wait at the terminal. AWESOME! I love that! I hate waiting at airports (like I am at this very second...). 

We headed from the airport to San Diego's Gas Lamp District. It is a cute little part of downtown that they have restored. It was a nice place. It was certainly worth visiting. We ate at a yummy mexican place (see photo of Jackson with burrito in previous post). We also bought a sweatshirt because it is a lot cooler down by the water than we expected it to be. We did make time for ice cream, though. Ghiradelli is awesome. They're $9 sundae was excellent. We shared. There is no way I was paying for 2 sundaes. (Remember, I'm cheap!) 

That evening we checked into the hotel and I got my roses. Again, see the previous post. We went to dinner at a NY style pizza before going to see Confessions of a Shopaholic. A few notes: the movie was cheesy and not as good as the book, stay away from NY style food in So. Cal- it is just too far away to be authentic and never be that person checking your phone in a movie. End of notes. We had a very nice day, though. We hope you did, too.
