Valentine's Day Get Away & A Life's Dream

On Sunday the 13th of February we drove down to San Juan Capistrano to get on the train to San Diego. We had breakfast at Sarducci's our favorite little restaurant right at the train station.
I thought we were staying at the Hard Rock hotel in downtown San Diego for 2 nights but Limo Man surprised me with a ferry ride to Coronado Island and a night's stay at the world famous Hotel Del Coronado. I couldn't resist getting a shot of the statue of a sailor and his cutie as we ferried over to the island.
We had a suite on the 3rd floor of the Victorian wing of the hotel and this was the view from our balcony.
I love to see this man relax. They actually had 2 chairs and a rocker on the balcony and Limo Man was in heaven in the rocker.
Our suite is just below the flagpole. You might be able to see the towel hanging there.
This is a shot of the hotel from the beach. If you ever get the chance to stay here you won't be disappointed. The Hotel Del exudes classical elegance and I felt like I was in a movie!
This is the Del's logo....this was actually the side of a trash bin.
We had to get shot of the chandelier in the lobby. This shot was taken on Valentine's Day as we were getting ready to go back to downtown San Diego.
Back in August I got a picture from Limo Man of the Hotel Del and have always wanted to stay there. Now that we have it's going to be tough to beat the experience. It was a life's dream come true! I love you Limo Man!
