Awake: 6+45      Temp 46      sleep 6+35      sunny overnight @ San Diego, CA.

 Kathy has (her) Apple computer set for a 7:45am wakeup in the kitchen; this morning when she opened the cover, only a light blue tint was visible on the screen. Horrors!

No matter what she tried: no response on the screen? So after breakfast, she called the Apple Computer store in Fashion Mall & made an 11:15am appointment @ the Genius Bar.

After breakfast, we motored to the Fashion Mall (15) min & found the Apple Store. DSC08841.JPG We checked in with one of the floor attendees & gave our name; maybe (5) min later, Brian motioned us to the counter. Kathy began to tell her story of her sleeping computer while Brian opened the cover & presto, the computer worked as normal.

Kathy has had another problem----she can receive EM directly through the MAC, but cannot send it out directly. Instead, using Safari, she has to go through Squirrel Mail. Brian investigated, made some changes & was sure he had the problem fixed. Much to Kathy's consternation, that was no so. We'll make another trip to an Apple Store in Las Vegas. 




DSC08842.JPGBack in our motorhome, Kathy did some vacuuming, dusting, washing & waxing the granite floors while I oiled the tow bar unit outside & organized one of the basement bays to get rid of some miscellaneous stuff we no longer need.

That inside cleaning, washing & waxing stuff must have worn Kathy out....but she guards her Apple Computer religiously. DSC08843.JPG Since we plan to leave San Diego on Sunday, Sallie & Kathy made plans for us to dine out tonight @ the "Fish Market" on Harbor Drive for our farewell dinner.

We've eaten @ the Fish Market once before; January 24th with Sallie & Larry, Mabel & Shaul. The restaurant was full but not overcrowded then.

Well tonight, the place was super crowded. The wait time was (15-20) min & there were people everywhere. While Kathy & Sallie joined the long line to sign in, I followed Larry upstairs to check the 2nd floor; yes, there is vacancy with a view of the ocean. I motioned to the ladies to "come on up."

After taking our seats overlooking the Pacific Ocean & admiring the eloquently dressed table with linen napkins etc, we were a little suspicious that this higher seating profile may come with a higher price tag. When opening our menus, our suspicions were right on.

Down to the 1st floor & back in the line-up we went. I had no idea this restaurant had so many rooms & every room was packed full...save for a small corner @ the end of the restaurant for us. Kathy & I shared a fresh Alaskan Halibut & we each had a spinach salad. I also helped Larry with his sushi sampler dish. Definitely, this Fish Market is a reasonable dining spot with many choices of tasty fresh fish & other non-fishy options. DSC08844.JPG Larry & Sallie dropped us off @ the main gate; were we said our goodbyes for now & wished each other "safe travels. We thanked them for all the touring time & other help they've given us & walked about a thousand feet to our motor home.

We will miss San Diego & Sallie & Larry, who have definitely added to our enjoyment of our stay here.

Aside from our PA hangout, this has been unusual for us to stay so long (3) months in one spot, but the weather & touring opportunities were ever so magnetic. So many of the other states were having unusually cold & rainy/snowy weather.....why not stay a little longer.

Lights out: 12:02am.
