It was so much fun but it would have been nice if the June Gloom wasn't around! My girlfriend said Fiesta de Gloom! It ended up not being so bad standing an asphalt to watch the shows. One of my favorites was the Stones Cover Band! They rocked and really looked like them too. If you are around the San Diego area this is a great event to go to today! 06/06/2010

Claire's on Cedros is a fabulous bakery and cafe located in Solana Beach, just north of the train station on Cedros Avenue.  My husband and I had the pleasure of eating breakfast at Claire's last weekend and were pleasantly surprised by the structure as well as the delicious food.
