Bike Ride to Swami's and Back

Looking up the coast at South Carlsbad State Beach

Saturday, April 28, we rode our trusty Schwinns down the coast past Leucadia, Encinitas, and turning around at Swami's.  Along the way we stopped at a garage sale where I bought a microscope for $15.  This was no toy, but a medical lab quality binocular 1,000 power scope in good condition.  I can't wait to share it with the grandchildren and anyone else.  We continued on and discovered our new favorite plant nursery, Gardens by the Sea, where we bought an unusual Mocha Agave.  After turning around at the famed Swami's, we headed back for the Encinitas Street Fair for some sights and sounds. Sunday, we retraced our steps in Blue to pick up the stuff we bought but couldn't carry.

Getting pretty good at the hand held self-photo technique!
