Mission Bay

The coordinators of the San Diego tournament reserved lodging for all the soccer families at the "Catamaran Resort" on Mission Bay.  Oh my, it was nice.  Mission Bay is a lagoon bordered by gorgeous white sandy beaches.  Right across the street, only about a two minute walk away is the Pacific Ocean. Here is an internet picture of the resort with the bay on one side, and the ocean on the other.  We stayed on the third floor of the tower.

Here are some pictures I took of our hotel and the Mission Bay beach.  It was amazing with all the sailboats and watercraft, and people walking, biking and rollerblading on the trail surrounding the bay.  

One night we took a cruise around the Bay on the Bahia Belle, a Mississippi-style steam boat.  It totally reminded me of New Orleans!  

The resort was a tropical paradise, including an exotic bird exhibit.  The birds actually talked to us!  Stefanie had fun feeding the fish and ducks.  Loved Catamaran Resort!
