San Diego to Palm Springs

Slept late then drove out to Coronado Island to visit Dave's Aunt Barbara.  I loved hearing her tell stories of her husband and their history on Coronado Island. We also enjoyed meeting Dave's cousin Janice(retired school teacher) and husband Art(professional photographer) and his other cousin, Susan, and her fiancee, Dano.  Dano had  prepared a super fish taco lunch for all of us.  I thought that it might be hard to visit with all these folks that we had no history with but instead they made us feel like family and we had a wonderful time.

After lunch and goodbyes.... We visited Coronado Beach and then drove east for about three hours to Desert Springs Villas(our home for the next seven days).
