[XNASA]

Photo from recent father and son bonding adventure.

Where are we, specifically?

[Kellanved]

1. San Diego?

;-)

[XNASA]

6. Yes. But where specifically in San Diego?

[underpants]

7. West San Diego

:shrug:

[XNASA]

9. West San Diego indeed.

Actually, we are at a well known tourist spot. Although we are facing the west in the photo.

12. The deck of the USS Abraham Lincoln not in photo-op position?

Sea World? I really have NO idea

[XNASA]

14. We were on the deck of an aircraft carrier while in SD.

We took a tour of the USS Midway, which was a sister ship to the ship I was on, the FDR.

Actually, we're at Cabrillo National Monument on Point Loma. The area just behind us and in front of downtown San Diego is North Island Naval Air Station.

16. That was my second guess

or fifth what have you

[GOPisEvil]

19. Cabrillo is gorgeous!

Didja go into the lighthouse?

[XNASA]

20. We did not.

We were on our way to a tour on the USS Midway and afterwards to the San Diego Auto Show. We really crammed a lot into our trip, so the lighthouse will have to wait until next time.

:hi:

[GOPisEvil]

23. If I win the lottery...Coronado Island, baby.

What a beautiful place to live.

[XNASA]

25. Me too!

I'm there.......lotto or not. Someday.

I did live at North Island for 2 months in the summer of '77.

I was happy to see that not much as changed in SD over the years and what has changed has been for the better.

29. Last time I was there, we stayed right on Point Loma.

It was this 40's style small hotel. Lots of character, but clean sand safe.

We took a drive out to the Hotel Del just to walk around. I have a pack of matches that makes it look like I stayed.

2. What a nice picture!

So where are you?

[underpants]

3. Houston?

Just a guess.

[XNASA]

8. Egads. No way. We lived there for 6 years........

...and have no desire to return.

Anyway, there are no hills in Houston and it's not near the water either. Though I suppose you might guess that we were in a building.

[underpants]

10. NO I was guessing sea ports

at first I thought Salt Lake City but there is no water like that that near too it.

[HEAVYHEART]

4. Nevada?

That really is a nice photo. :)

[tigereye]

11. Ah yes. Oceanfront Nevada.

One of my very favorite imaginary places.

28. that pic brings back memories

Did you make it to LaJolla? That was my favorite hang out.. There is also a restaurt called bull winkles I think. Chilli burger that would knock your socks off..

[XNASA]

30. Not to La Jolla, or even El Cajon.....

Which are two of my favorite, most mispronounced cities.

Mostly hung out in downtown SD. The Gaslight Quarter is great. Wonderful restaurants. Went to the Auto Show at the Convention Center.

Love SD.

[Susang]

In bed, dreaming?

:shrug:

[XNASA]

33. We're not from.....

Wherever it is that Dad's don't spring for two beds are from.

[ProfessorGAC]

31. Not Guessing, But.. .

. . .how long were you there?

I read the rest of the thread first, so i knew the answer, but i never would have gotten it anyway. Just knew it was near a sizeable city near an ocean or vast body of water. So, i'm glad someone else guessed it right. I'd have been here all day typing in guesses!

Hope you guys had fun.
