The La Jolla wedding trip
Thanks to a nephew and a delightful friend making a public announcement of a private intention (thanks Papa); we went for a weekend in La Jolla. We had time for the wedding, a trip to the model railroad museum, a trip to the carousel, and one the the
San Diego Natural History Museum.
This starts off with an Allosaurus, didn't check if it was big Al. They didn't have an extensive dinosaur exhibit. But the explanation of local dinosaurs, and the lack of fossils, was excellent.
They mounted two skeletons in an usual manner, skeleton to the left and reconstruction to the right.
This is the left side of an Albertosaurus

And a Lambeosaur
They had a traveling exhibition of animal skulls. This is a Great Horned Owl.

After lunch we went to the model railroad museum. We've been coming here probably since the late 70's
Then off to the carousel. Susan got the brass ring -- twice. She was happy about that!
So that was 2014, February through November over 80 nights on the road.
It's been a good year, thank you Susan for your enthusiasm for some unusual places and activities.
