Friday morning we tested the car to see if we could get six people and luggage in it. We could not.
What we decided was that I would take Graham to San Diego to meet Deneen's plane. The thought, being that Martin would be able to see San Diego later, but this was Graham's one chance.
We arrived in San Diego around 2:00pm. We spent the afternoon in Balboa Park, specifically visiting the San Diego Museum of Art. I had read an article in the San Diego Union-Tribune about spring events at the museum. They sounded great. I was a little disapointed as the article made the museum seem much cooler.
I did give Graham a lecture tour about the history of nineteenth and twentieth century American art and discussed at length that I think most art museums totally miss the boat on interpreting the context that art is created in. Without this, art is usually misinterpreted and misunderstood by the viewer.
After the art museum we went down to the Gaslamp District and walked around we got a hamburger at Hodad's. Graham thought this was the best hamburger he ever had.
On the way back to the car there were crowds of people walking down to the Petco stadium. So we followed them.
Just in time for the beginning of a Padres game. I don't think that I have been to a professional baseball g
ame in twenty years. But the stadium had cheap seats and we had a good time.
Show all
