We arrived in San Diego on a Monday afternoon, found our hotel, enjoyed a great lunch at the Corvette Cafe and started our big tour of San Diego! Our first stop, which became a frequent stop, was Balboa Park located in downtown San Diego. After looking around a bit, we settled in for a performance at the Spreckels Organ Pavilion which houses the Spreckels Organ. Every week there are free, open air concerts for the public. On this night, we enjoyed a concert by Hector Olivera of Argentina. If you enlarge the picture, you can see him on stage playing the organ. http://www.balboapark.org/in-the-park/detail.php?OrgID=75

The architecture through out Balboa Park is stunning! Lots of weddings are held here.
Beautiful Landscaping Everywhere!

Then there was the Japanese Garden.
Complete with Bonsai!
As you walk through the park visiting the various museums - 13 in all - you are constantly surrounded by a beautiful landscape.
