Traditional and Modern style of shapes go well together here.
I'm not sure if this is a Henri Moore sculpture....

Since San Diego is a military "town,"
the street where the military once had a base
the street where the military once had a base
is still lined with flags for days like this.. A festive sight!
To the left of the dome is this bell tower.
See the blue and yellow?
Last Year San Diego was statistically no. 1 city in California
to celebrate July 4th. Already the year before that, the traffic was unbelievable.
That's why we're going to Solvang, a picturesque small town,
Danish in origin.
No doubt each Year
they have a concert or an art display here
at the Open Air Theater
at Balboa Park
Borrowing one of hubby's firework captures
at Disneyland he had to do for his class assignment.
I love the colors in this one!

I was taken by surprise to see all those 'beach' umbrellas in the audience. And I love the bell tower.
lovely photos ;-)
thanks for leaving a comment on my Skywatch Friday post.
He did a super job, but then so did you! Happy fourth!!
The dome and bell tower are beautiful, and I really like the fireworks picture.
Thanks for visiting my site.
Gorgeous! Visiting late from Sky Watch Friday.
Please come take a peek at my Sky Shots, have a great weekend!
The architectural elements are lovely!
I smiled when I saw all the umbrellas.
Your hubby took a wonderful shot of the fireworks. That's not easy -kudos to him!
Lovely images, the bell tower is pretty. The fireworks are beautiful, Happy 4th of July!
A most enjoyable post!! Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.
Glorious tower, but I am especially fascinated by the sculpture! It has the flow of a Henri Moore!
Balboa Park is a fantastic place. So much to see and do there!
Lovely shots!
Congrats on your new grandie! My granddaughter's name is Bree...not Brianna...just Bree.
best to YOU too.
love the mix of colors.

It seems you're back from your travels? Great to hear from you again! It's even greater, since it's only 1 1/2 hrs. away from where I live!
Karin,
It was the first time I heard that name when the parents were in that stage of choosing a name - since I like Brie very much, I can think of Bree when I snack on my Brie at night:)
Roger,
A mix of colors is actually easier than to keep everything in one color:):)

Hello, this is my first visit to your blog, came over via ABC Wednesday and noticed your photos of Balboa Park. I miss that park! We moved north to Long Beach a couple decades ago and it's too far and few between that we get to visit San Diego!
