On the way to Palomar Mountain State Park

We can see Palomar Mountain from Jojoba Hills where we are staying, but the state park is on the other side of the mountain so we had a one hour drive.  It was a beautiful drive so it was well worth it.

Mission Bay Trail - San Diego

We took our bikes to the Mission Bay Trail.  The weather was perfect.  It was another outstanding day!!


Taken from the trail


The trail runs between the homes and condos.


I enjoyed looking at the different homes along the trail.


There was a stern wheel boat in the bay.



A foot bridge crosses a little cove and you can see how clear the water is.


We had a nice lunch at the Olive Cafe.


Customers at the cafe were feeding birds


Another shot of the cafe


Looking down one of the pathways that lead from the beach to the main road.



Mission Bay, San Diego


We took the short jaunt to the coastal beach.  The same one that we road on a few days ago.


Back to the Bay side


This map shows both the Mission Beach trail in red, and the Mission Bay trail in yellow.
