Last week, Grandma Zucc and I visited the sculpture of "The Kissing Sailor," located next to the Midway aircraft carrier now docked in San Diego. August 14, 1945 the Japanese signed an 'unconditional surrender' document that officially ended World Ward II. This sculpture certainly symbolizes that great moment of Unconditional Surrender.

Joe, my
son, recommended we eat at Hodad's in Ocean Beach.
Hodad's touts being the world's best hamburger, and I think they might be right.

The location is really quaint, with a single-file entrance. As for decorations, surfing was the mode with license plates covering all the walls.
 |
The waiters were very friendly young adults in casual attire. They made us feel welcome in an obviously youthful atmosphere.
 |
One of the servers actually offered to take our photo. The feeling I had as we left, was that of "Yes, I will definitely recommend this little place to my friends."

Leaving the crowded beaches behind, we continued our journey along the coast. Where the cars are parked, are warning signs, "Danger, unstable cliffs." Notice the people sitting on the cliff just above the crashing breaker. Also a dozen or so have wandered toward the sea in the background. Humans are so curious, don't you agree?
In an alleyway in the middle of the block just south of Old Town, a shop owner had set up this muppet type creature in order to attract attention to his little hide-a-way business. Loud, jazzy organ music was actually coming from the stand. Haha - sure got my attention!
Somewhere, at a mall just off Friar Road, between the freeway and Qualcomm stadium, we ate lunch at the IHOP. Just outside sitting a bench, was a bronze sculpture of Robert Frost. Grandma loves books, so she couldn't pass up this opportunity to sit with him.
Do you believe in UFO'S, haunted houses etc.? Be sure to check back in a week or so. I have some great photos to share with you.
