A couple weekends ago, Ed and I just took off to a weird resort in Escondido, about an hour from our house. We went there because we wanted to get away and got a good deal, but we had no idea what was there, except for the fact that it was close to San Diego. Well, it is this super cute little town that seems to be going through a renaissance. Unfortunately the amazing looking crafts museum was closed while we were there, but Ed discovered this amazing little art installation in a very nondescript public park that truly is the most amazing place ever. It is done by an artist named Niki de Saint Phalle, and is called Queen Califia's Magical Circle. Basically, there are so many amazing things to se and so many angles that these pictures barely do it justice, but I thought I would share anyway. We took about a hundred pictures and I could have kept going. The whole thing is not even that big, but I could spend hours there. We also went to the San Diego wild animal park on this trip and did a bunch of wine tasting, but all pales in comparison.
For any of you thinking of coming to visit us, we would be happy to take you in person:
