Drake's song Started From The Bottom seems fitting for #backthatazzup Friday and today's last vacation post, seeings how Bradley and I hiked a mountain on our last full day in San Diego.
We started from the bottom...of Lake Poway. See what I did there?!
See that lake way down there. Yeah, that's where we started.
7 plus miles. 2000 plus fee rise in elevation to get to Potato Chip Rock.
To answer your question, no I did not go out on that ledge. There was a line, plus I am not a big of drop offs and ledges or heights.
We did find out own little rock with no line to hang out on though and take some photos.
Mountain Top Meditation.
After hiking we were STARVING!
If you're in Gaslamp and want great fresh fish, check out Escape. Not a very large menu, but they do things right.
Sangria is a great way to start the meal.
Then we headed onto Salmon Cakes. They were legit, but the highlights of the appetizer were the picked carrots and jícama
For the meal, meal, I ordered locally caught yellow tail tacones.
Whereas Brad ordered the yellow tail grilled featuring a Cajun spice. Both were excellent, although I think mine was better because it was in wrap form.
Mine came with a
Es-ca-pe. It's spelled just like the word Escape. (Name that movie).
And in case you didn't believe me when I said I ate my way around San Diego here is one last example.
Tuesday morning before we flew back home we grabbed brunch at a place in Point Loma called To The Point. Super cute, super friendly staff, and super great breakfast food.
Not to mention a big ass latte.
Just your simple eggs and meat, but the meat was extra lovely chicken apple sausage.
Brad picked whatever option came in wrap form.
We ate outside, but the inside was adorable.
Ugh, and that officially ends my vacation photos. TAKE ME BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am sure you are tired of hearing about it, but I just want to keep reliving it. Good news is, the sun is coming back to Portland for the weekend, so I can just pretend I am at the beach instead of my apartment pool (totally the same thing) Actually, I don't even think our pool is open yet, stupid Oregon weather!!
Cheers,
<3 BB

Awesome pics! That hike looks awesome!! I have been aching for a vacation, but nothing planned yet... want to get out of town even for a couple days! But no rain forecast here for the next 10 days, so hopefully it'll be amazing here too!
I can't believe there's a place called Potato Chip Rock- I need to go there! Looks like you had a blast!
I love food on vacation... it's the best.
That food looks amazzzzingggg. I am going to Portland at the end of June (I think) and to San Diego in August!! I will have to try some of that tasty goodness up there.

We comment on a lot of the same blogs, so I had to come check you out! Any blogger with a huge amount of food pics is someone I want to follow! I love a good latte and chicken apple sausage is the only breakfast sausage that should be served in my opinion!
