this building in beautiful Balboa Park in San Diego with several museums, an outdoor concert place, restaurants, and a corner with art shops. Everything you may want to do for the weekend.
Another very popular feature where you always will find people milling around in the park is the fountain.Or, is it because the ice cream and the hot dog stand?

I havve a couple of photos of my mother and I in front of that fountain with my little dog. I was in college @ SDSU then, almost 40 years ago. It was a bright sunny day as always in S.D. I miss it so sometimes but it's changed and I heard they even moved one of my favorite places, Bazaar del Mundo, out of Old Towne. Travesty!
I only see the reflections of the palm
That centre one is one spray with attitude!
the window shot is beautiful!! very ethereal
My fav is the fountain. What a gorgeous watery shot! That is one FANTASTIC water feature!!!
Its a beautiful fountain! I have been to SD, but have not explored the city. Your photos made me want to visit.
Top fountain shot.

great to see a fountain. Ours are closed for the season now. :(
California Girl,
That fountain sounds like a good memory - maybe you should go back for a little vacation and visit your fave places...We have some family photos in front of that fountain as well:) Yes, a lot of changes in Old Town.
Do you know where Bazaar del Mundo moved to?
Leovi,
You have seen that right, Leovi:)
Leslie,
I like the additive "with an attitude":)
Dianne,
Thank you -it magnified it with photoshop to satisfy my curiosity!
Clytie,
Indeed, the fountain is so vibrant! Many weddings are photographed in this park.
Ebie,
The following are very fun, especially with kids:
Seaport village, Balboa Park, Seaport (hefty entrance fee), airplane-carrier (older models of planes), the harbor has short harbor cruises, etc.
J Bar,
Thank you!
Nature Step,
I understand, nothing more diappointing than a fountain that does not spray water!
Because of the winter?
All 3 are great photos, but my favorite one is the fountain!
Lovely shots!
Vicki,
Thank you:) Saw that you've posted some interesting things on your reading blog. Because of the high no. of followers, was it at one time a blog of note?
Gigi,
Thank you! You have a darling blog -I loved the post about little cutesy reading a book to Bentley.
I guess you could say a fountain is a perfect place for a hot dog & ice cream stand!
I like the architecture above the window, and the palm reflection is cool! Love all kinds of fountains too.
Of course you can use my photo. If you could I'd like to see a shot of the pcture when you are finished.
Thanks. Have a great rest of the week.

Cildemer,
Merci beaucoup, mon ami! Already went to your blog and left a comment. Have a great weekend!
Ican't decide between the fountain and the window. since I love fountains it might win.....
Niwit1,
You can love BOTH:):)
Jeannette, I was just there for a conference and although I have seen San Diego many times, each visit shows me new vistas not previously seen. The fact that there is no shortage of excellent food is a plus as well!
Bon weekend,
G
I like the reflected palm leaves in the first shot!
Nice blue window and subtil reflection.
Beautiful reflections and "The Lion and Lamb" is also very beautiful!
Genie,
That must be why San Diego is so popular:) Have a great weekend!
Dimple,
Thank you - great to see you back here!
Sarah,
Thank you- always good to "see" you!
Woody,
Thank you twice! And also for visiting my blog!
Wow, I like the first photo.
I love the white foamy water against the deep blue sky!
And the blue and green colors in the window shot look great together. Beautiful pictures!
