We make first contact…

A light breakfast, and brief trip to Von’s and Radio Shack to pick up necessaries (Radio Shack survives here mostly on toys, phones, and phone accessories) and then to El Norte in Carlsbad. This is an annual favorite that we insist on sharing with family and friends, a stone’s throw from where Paula’s dad spent his last several years. Baron really liked his mahi mahi enchilada, finished his plate along with a lot of chips and salsa. No photos. But then up to Oceanside and the pier and his first encounter with the Pacific, which had to be documented, as was his older brother’s encounter.
