grandpa Our Trip to Coronado

On Saturday Oct. 25, 2008, my wife and I flew to San Diego to visit our Grandson. We drove to Coronado, checked into the Navy Lodge, and got settled. Everyone at the Lodge and on the Base were great.

If you get a chance to stay at the Lodge try to get Oceanside and 5th floor or above for a great view of the BUD’s Training area. Be prepared for Reveille and the National Anthem each morning played on the PA system plus… Continue
