Allen took me to Torrey Pines, a beautiful beach in San Diego. I think it is near La Jolla, but I could be wrong. It was a great day; sushi at Yummy Box, 1lb. Chocolate bar (milk chocolate with almonds) quad espresso with three shots of white mocha on the rocks. Anyhow, Red tide is much too magical for words. With every step you take, the beach floor lights beneath you. In the darkness of the late evening, and not much light pollution, this makes for an amazing scene. The tide is lit bright blue at every break. We also went to Mt. Soledad. The entirety of San Diego and beyond is visible from there. The moon was huge, full and red. Amazing! Ahh, I love nights like that!
