Winter Time in SoCal part I: Mission Beach and Pacific Beach



view of Crystal Pier from North Pacific Beach


Since my last update, I have traveled back to the United States, then Hawai'i, then drove cross-country from Detroit to San Diego, where I am staying at the moment.

My favorite things about Southern California are the surf and the weather. People form other parts of the country sometimes ask "how much of a difference does the weather really make?"

Well, for those of you who spend the winter braving snow storms, blizzards, freezing temperatures, fog, hail or endless rain, take a look at the pictures below and answer that question for yourself...
