Saving Second Base...

It all began on a chilly, overcast Friday morning at Del Mar Fairgrounds. The 20.1-mile route featured many memorable highlights, including lunch in Kellogg Park at La Jolla Shores, the pink balloon arch at La Jolla Shores Hotel, the seals at The Children's Pool and of course the San Jose bike cops! After a long day of walking, we settled in to camp at Crown Point Shores in Mission Bay Park.

(Here we are on Day 2, still happy to be walking)

Saturday's 19.6-mile day also started out foggy and chilly, but it couldn't dampen our spirits. The beauty of the Pacific Ocean along Sunset Cliffs was inspiring. There was lots of community support throughout the weekend, including the South Beach Bar and Grill handing out water and soda, Clowns for the Cure, Pink Panther, friends, family and many locals. Bonita Cove was a beautiful spot for lunch, and we were greeted by Miss Teen USA. The UC Davis band gave a great show to keep us walking!

(Day 3 ended with Margaritas at the local pizza joint)

Sunday's 14.3-mile route skirted through Mission Bay, with beautiful, sunny weather. Bustin Out Billy kept us laughing. A friendly Mexican restaurant in Old Town handed out snacks to fuel our climb up the Juan Street Hill, and the National Charity League of Moms and Daughters cheered us up the whole way. It all ended with a celebatory Closing Ceremony at Petco Park.
