This really wasn't a day where much was accomplished to be honest. We woke up just before checkout time and then headed over to the Atomic Testing museum to learn about American nuclear history. It was very informative but they wouldn't allow me to take any pictures dammit! It did give me a lot to think about during the entire trip however, was the nuclear genie a good thing in the long run consideringa ll the happened and the costs? Perhaps if we start using nuclear engines to take us into the solar system the benefits might start swaying back into the pro column but right now what has been the cost I feel has been greater than any benefits.
The trip to San Deigo was long and not very interesting but againn quite quick considering the distance travelled and the legal speed at doing so. We got to San Deigo about 6pm and the biggest problem was parking as the Gaslamp quarter is where all the clubs and resturants are so it was crowded, even more than normal because it was Friday night. Finally we found a place and did a little scouting for food which really wasn't that hard. I also found a late night Borders store which stocked World War Z (score) so I hurridly bought a copy because no Borders in Australia stocks it. I checked.
That night I went out and hit a few of the clubs and pubs around and got aquainted with a few of the locals. It was a good night of dancing and talking which set the mood for the next few days even if I was too damn tired after staying up late and getting relatively little sleep.
