Tide Pools
I’m planning to soon write a post on some things we love to do in San Diego that aren’t the top tourist things. One of those is visiting the tide pools at Cabrillo National Monument. This is from our visit there last year. Have you ever been there? I’m hoping to be able to … Continue reading
