The Pefect Day – Torrey Pines Beach & Hiking

An unexpectedly perfect day hiking and relaxing on the beach in San Diego’s Torrey Pines State Park and Preserve. It wasn’t too crowded, the scenery was beautiful and nature had been well preserved – all within a few minutes of downtown San Diego.

I love visiting the country’s National Parks and Monuments and this one was a particular favorite of mine. Pictured is the limestone statue at Cabrillo National Monument in San Diego, California. Overlooking the city skyline and harbor from the Point Loma peninsula it was quite beautiful and worth the visit.

Happy new year everyone! I spent the last days of 2012 and the New Year’s holiday in San Diego, CA. This week’s photo was shot during my visit to the Zoo’s Safari Park (separate from the regular San Diego Zoo). This baby Gorilla’s name is Monroe and he put on a great show for everyone.
