A Stroll Through Time.......

Today we dropped our boy off at the airport for

his month long vacation with family friends

( I MISS HIM ALREADY!!!). 

So, we took advantage of San Diego for the afternoon and

took Freckles to see Old Town San Diego's...

Heritage Park Victorian Village.

She and I have a fondness for old Victorian homes ... 

well, we love everything old....

Unfortunately we came on a day they were closed for tours... 

Boo Hoo.

We'll come back another time. It was still quite lovely to see 

the sweet character of these old antique homes.

One favorite part of the village was the darling 

garden circle in the middle of the court.

The tree in the middle was just delightful..

.and of course my little girl looked very sweet there too!

After our afternoon stroll... 

we went to a favorite book store of ours nearby.

They carry a lot of out of print, rare, vintage and antique books

as well as children books. We love the Children Books!!! 

Freckles found something sweet!

But, Mama said...No! 

The price is too high!

Sorry Freckles!!!

This was one of my favorite books today.... 

Yet again it was too much. $40.00 for the book!

Mr. Darling loves to browse the shelves of literary goodness! 

I will leave him to it... 

and go back downstairs to the Children Books!

I took a couple pics. of some fun colorful books.

I wish I could have bought Toy Land And Away... 

But it was a $60.00 book! Youch!!!!

We had a great afternoon .... 

I hope you did too! 

See ya later!!!
