local gem // a Coronado ferry ride

When family visits to San Diego for the first time, I get to be a tourist all over again (although I still feel like a tourist most of the time, having lived here only a year and a half). So on a beautiful and warm Saturday afternoon, the Mister and I treated my parents to something we had never done before either: a short ferry ride from Broadway Pier to Coronado.

Gorgeous bay views, a little shopping area where we treated ourselves to ice cream, and duck and pelican-watching. It was perfect.

And just for fun, here's a quickie panorama I took with my iPhone :)
