Imagine seeing Christmas trees for sale just steps from the beach. Outdoor beach Christmas parties. Being from Toronto, that's something I'm just not used to. But I'm certainly not complaining. The weather is great here -- I could get used to this!</p> <p>I'll probably visit downtown sometime this week. As for tomorrow, I'm heading to <a href="http://www.seetijuana.com/" title="Tijuana">Tijuana</a> to check out <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avenida_Revoluci%C3%B3n" title="Avenida Revolución">Avenida Revolución</a>. I should have more <a href="/misc/pics/sandiego2006/" title="pics">pics</a> up sometime tomorrow. Adios!</p>
