Our family played in an annual USTA tennis tournament there every summer. My favorite was the "mother-daughter" doubles event.<br /><br />I would spend a lot of time walking on the beach, and I discovered a great bookstore near the coast, but can't remember the name.

I was watching 'Good Morning America' the other day and they were showing incredible waves off the coast of California and surfers needing to be rescued ~ huge waves! I do think surfing looks fun but I don't think I would dare to try it. Thanks for sharing these photos from your corner of the world!

You managed to take in La Jolla Cove at high tide! Which of course is the best time for swimming....<br /><br />The Cove is simply wonderful...the Cave gift shop and the steps down inside are just the thing to cool off with children and if you can manage a shower and tidy up, you can walk to the pink La Valencia for dinner. <br /><br />I miss my home town a lot! Next trip to San Diego, do try to go to Mt. Soledad (the Mt. with the cross above LJ.)
