La Jolla, Baby...

We went to La Jolla this weekend to celebrate my b-day... first time visiting...

Went to the downtown L Jolla to start... went to lunch at George's...

Great lunch... awesome view... and a potent Bloody Mary... Kim had a Vodka infused strawberry lemonade... oh... and good food too  ;-)

Walked a bit downtown... nice shops... then went to the shore... people swimming and snorkeling...

Made our way back to La Jolla 'proper'... just off the 5... stayed at the Marriott...

Older building, but has been nicely upgraded... rooms are nice... we had a great view... new LCDs for your TV viewing pleasure...

Downstairs bar was cool... great wine list by the glass (had an '03 Freemark Abbey)... and watched a heartbreak for SDSU v the Domers...

Went to Roy's for dinner... first time there... great fresh fish...

Closed out the evening at the bar downstairs... couldn't go to the room as a fire alarm went off on the 11th floor (probably those damn USC water-polo players goofing around)...

All in all... La Jolla's a great place for a quick weekend get-a-way...

Ciao...
