Old Town - SD Pt 2

After Cabrillo we drove over to Old Town San Diego (kinda like Acadian Village) to "learn about life in the Mexican and early American periods of 1821 to 1872." It's kinda cheesy but really really fun! There was supposed to be a tour at 6pm, but of course that tour was canceled that day. So we just wondered about and did a self guided tour.

This little guy was in the main visitor center - I have no idea:

Hanging Laundry (and Mon's feet): Crates of Pandas, Incense, and HI AMY! (seriously, who ships pandas like that?):
Pretty backdrop by the restaurant where we ate. The food's good and cheap - Monica and I split a plate and were still stuffed:
Dia de los Muertos: She looks so happy! I love this imagery.

Finally, we went check into the hotel. There, in the lobby, was one of the greatest things I've ever seen (rivaling the Cozy Dogs).

May I present Sir Waffelot:
(it's way better if you hum Baby Got Back and fill in the words with breakfast items)(And why yes he does have a pat of butter for his nose. and that 'pat of butter' is a piece of Styrofoam with the bottom corner chipped off)
