Lyons Air Museum & Jaguars

We had been meaning to go to the Lyons air museum at SNA, but never got around to it.  However, today the SoCal Jaguar owners club was meeting at the museum to display their cars.  We headed to the airport with Mark & Theresa.  It was a nice morning out and we saw some cool planes & cars!






Big Bear, Xmas 2011

Angela had been bugging me about going to the mountains to see the snow. Since I had a week off work over Xmas, we headed up to Big Bear for the day.  Below are a few pics:





Christmas Eve 2011 at Casa Saldana

As is tradition, we headed over to Angela's parents house for Christmas Eve.  Below are a few pictures of the night and also some marzipan fruit we made:


Old Town San Diego, Dec' 2011

We headed down to San Diego for "December Nights" the Christmas festival/fair at Balboa Park. Balboa Park once hosted the worlds fair, and now is a big park with lots of museums. All the museums were free and we saw everything from a WWII spitfire to classic cars and modern art! We had some excellent Indian food from the Indian cottage (each country has its own little cottage, including England). We stayed in the old town and had some great food and drinks!  There have been a lot of changes to the old town since I first visited, it much more developed and much more popular.  Below are a few pictures of the old town and the newly restored victorian square:
