Helen visited in February, and we drove to San Diego
for the weekend. Vi visited some of our friends, but there was also some
time for sight seeing. We decided to go to see Kitchen falls which was
supposed to be one of the nicest waterfalls in the San Diego vicinity.
Given the time of year, it should be reasonable. However, when we finally
found the place where the hike started (we were looking for a shop, but it had
burned down since our guide book was written), we met a person that could tell,
that there was no water in the fall. Well, we decided to go for the hike
anyway, and it was a quite nice hike even though we missed the actual
fall. On the way back, we stopped by the border to Mexico - we wanted to
go across, but I had forgotten my green card, and it is not sufficient to bring
a passport, so I have to stay in America. We also topped by the old part
of San Diego.

the falls. |
Yes, there was
some water, but not enough for a fall |
This is as close as we got to
Mexico. |

Imagine what the fall could
look like if there was water in it. |
It was hot,
but we found some shade here and there |
