Hiking near the wall Hiking near the wall

We pivoted to see some friends in San Diego and had a grand time exploring the area.

Our friends were in Imperial City so we camped at the conveniently located Tijuana River Valley Campground. It was a brief stay but we enjoyed hiking up in the hills this morning to get views of San Diego and the Tijuana coastline. Of course we also got a view of the wall, shown above.

Then we moved on to Cabrillo National Monument on Point Loma. The park was only a few miles away but we had to circumnavigate the entire San Diego bay to get there. The views are spectacular there and we had a sunny sky and blue water day.

Highlight for us was tidepooling at low tide. It wasn’t a minus tide so we couldn’t get far out but there were still crabs, anemones, and lots of bird life.
