San Diego, CA (USA)

[Advanced Officer Leadership Training Course]  Up early so I could get to the Hartsfield airport.  Parked in the long term lot and headed to the Terminal.  After getting through security, I got aboard my flight and left Atlanta. Arrived in San Diego in the early afternoon. The final approach was interesting - there seemed to be buildings on both sides of aircraft as it was coming in to land... After getting off the plane, I finally got my rental car (it was NOT an easy pickup) at the Enterprise desk (1100L).  On the way to Coronado, I stopped by the San Diego City Library to do a little genealogy research - I'm glad that it is open on the weekend!  After some productive work there, I drove to a nearby Commissary to pick up some dinner (1720L).  Finally, I NAS North Island and checked into the Navy Lodge, located on the beach!  For the rest of the evening, I ate my dinner and relaxed in the room.  I also did some prep for the course (starts in the morning).
