I’m in San Diego for the Plant and Animal Genome conference, and since Alamo is running a great $10 a day weekend deal, I have a car till Monday for $36 total. Nice.

After checking in to the hotel, I drove down to South Mission Beach and walked along the ocean front walkway. After a day in airline seats it was a perfect antidote! I stopped in to Cane’s to watch the sunset –  a bit touristy, but the view is unbeatable, and my southwest spring rolls were good.

This morning I went to the Hash House a Go Go for breakfast and had the turkey and bacon hash. It was enormous, easily enough for two people, and about $12. More importantly, it was a good mix of flavors and quite tasty.  I’m pretty sure that I won’t be eating again until dinner time.
