Lisbon

It was a long day getting here. I hadn't used the San Diego commuter airport before and arrived way to early. Then my plane was parked on tarmack at LAX almost missed my connection then the fun began. At LAX after boarding the plane a luggage car ran into side of plane near fuel tank and they had to find us a new plane, transfer luggage, catering and check out plane. They did a great job only about 2 hours late I've heard horror stories. We walked around and took some photos. Tomorrow will be a wonderful day.

San Diego




After touring Saint Augustine we learned that the Old Spanish Trail that our bike route was following actually ends in San Diego. And the Tallahassee cyclist we saw was arrested for exposing his genitals. Yikes!!!

DC and Gettysburg
















We spent this morning in Washington DC and the afternoon at Gettysburg. There was a lot more security and roads blocked in DC today. My guess is because the Pres. went out for a hamburger and Lincoln Memorial had a lot going on too. Gettysburg was very interesting we have seen a lot of history and are very tired so we are heading home. See you soon.
