20090327 San Diego Day 2

--La Jolla

聽說是聖地牙哥的高級住宅區

山坡上的豪宅全都面向著這片蔚藍海岸,可以恣意欣賞點綴著棕櫚樹的熱帶風情

隨性的逛逛街,找間餐廳坐下來享受舒服的陽光

這裡是岩岸地形,倒也有另一種粗獷的美

可愛的海豹（or海獅?我老是分不清楚@@)一些自在的在海裡游泳,一些懶洋洋的躺在岸上曬太陽

La Valencia Hotel

La Valencia Hotel has been known as the Pink Lady of La Jolla since it was built in 1926. The inviting lobby is classic southern California: Spanish tiles, wrought-iron chandeliers, and a drop-dead view of La Jolla Cove.

就像這座旅館的暱稱"Pink Lady",遠遠的就看到這座建於1922年漂亮的西班牙式粉紅色建築物

--Coronado Island

連接聖地牙哥和科羅拉多島的是一座長達2.1 miles的跨海大橋（可以眺望整個聖地牙哥灣和聖地牙哥市景,風景非常漂亮喔,可惜我沒有拍下來)

這是Coronado的沙灘,沙質非常細緻乾淨(跟Tampa Clear Water Beach有得拼喔)

害我忍不住脫了鞋在沙灘上打滾起來（但為什麼照片上是要脫衣服?XD)

Hotel del Coronado

Construction of the hotel began in March 1887 and was finished just 11 months later in February 1888 at the cost of one million dollars. It is one of the oldest and largest all-wooden buildings in California and was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1977.

這座有著可愛圓錐型紅色屋頂的就是著名的科羅拉多旅館啦~

建於1888年,是加州最大的全木造建築和全美第一座全面使用電燈的旅館(愛迪生在這裡展示他發明的電燈喔)

The hotel has hosted a variety of notable guests, including Thomas Edison, L Frank Baum, and Charles Lindbergh. There is some speculation that Wallis, Duchess of Windsor was introduced to Edward VIII at the hotel.

這座旅館下榻過許多任美國總統和名人

其中最著名的應該就是不愛江山愛美人的英國愛德華八世,他在這裡邂逅了溫莎公爵夫人墜入情網
