It was a nice first day down here in San Diego. A fairly good nights sleep, with only those interruptions typical of sleeping in a new place. Then, breakfast at Janet's Montana Cafe in Alpine, CA.
From there, we went up to Balboa Park and walked the area, including the Botanical Gardens. I've got a bunch of great pictures from the gardens that I will share a little later. From there, we met Toby for lunch at the Chicken Pie Shop, and then swung over to Town & Country Resort to pick up our badges for the convention.
There was a bit of a line, but in comparison to other lines we're destined to stand in over the weekend, it was nothing - maybe fifteen minutes, all total. From there, a stop at Target to grab some odds and ends, then back to the hotel for a nap, a great conversation with T.R., then out for a simple dinner of chicken noodle soup and a grilled cheese sandwich.
Finally, back to the hotel and settling in for a simple and quiet evening. I am planning on getting a good nights sleep and looking forward to a full convention day tomorrow.
Lately, T.R. and I have been talking about being authentic (in the Buddhist sense). So, that is when my contemplation is turned of late. Questioning whether or not I am an authentic person, questioning what it is I am missing and why. It is an interesting internal question. I don't have any answers tonight, but I am comfortable living in that question.
