Sister's Weekend 2015

This weekend was the annual sisters weekend. This year we everyone came over to Marcia's house and we had a girls weekend. When every one arrived Friday night we went over to Domenico's Italian Food Restaurant and had dinner.
The following day we drove out to San Diego. We started the day off with lunch at Old Town San Diego. My sister in law Emily and I shared a meal and I was very surprised in her Mexican Food choices. We had green mole chicken and flan for dessert. From now on I will always trust her meal choices. The restaurant had home made tortillas just like the ones in Mexicali. I was in heaven.  
 
While we had been waiting for our seats at the restaurant we walked around since they were having a Twain Fest. Every one was dressed up in their pilgrim attire. I'm not sure what these tall things were.
 



 After lunch we went over to Balboa Park
 

 We walked around their beautiful gardens and went in to see some art exhibits at the museum.

This was one of my favorites. A photographer capturing people at the beach in Coney Island 'Visions of the American Dreamland'. I loved his candid shots of couple at the beach. The top one was supposed to be a young man and his girl enjoying the beach the day before he was deployed to war.  


This was another one of my favorites. It was a photographer, Gregory Crewdson who paid special attention to the lighting in his pictures. It was amazing. I can't wait to learn how to take pictures some day.

After the museum we went out and walked some more around the park

Balboa gave me flash backs of our wedding, since this is where we took our wedding pictures.

Such beautiful gardens.


I'm such a midget :)

And of course I made the girls take a bunch of pictures just before leaving
