Empower Network – San Diego Diary
We thought this would be a great way to share our time in California via our San Diego Diary
San Diego Diary Monday 17th September 2012
We departed London Heathrow early evening and flew 11 hours via British Airways to arrive in San Diego late afternoon (San Diego is 8 hours behind UK GMT) First impressions were how wonderfully warm it was compared to London. We checked into the Mariott Hotel where we were given an awesome room on the 16th Floor with a balcony overlooking the marina – WOW.
Here’s the view
San Diego Tuesday 18th September 2012
We woke up early as our bodies thought we were on a different time zone …. after a lazy breakfast we took a long walk along the the marina (about 3 miles) in the beautiful California sunshine to discover some of the delights of bay front San Diego. We discovered the Maratime Museum which consists of old rigged sailing ships, submarines and a modern day retired aircraft carrier ….. this is definitely the way to discover history – an eclectic mix of old and new.

…. as well as a bit of relaxation beside the pool in the gardens of the hotel. Beautiful place to grab a WiFi connection and catch up with friends on Facebook and ‘our daily marketing‘
We had a lovely lunch in a bay side restaraunt enjoying the sunshine and watching the yachts sailing by and afterwards a spot of sightseeing and just checking out all those super yachts ….. one day (Susan’s got this thing about sailing since she did it in Costa Rica)

San Diego Diary Thursday 20th September 2012
Thursday was a fun day – we packed so much into the day including a trip across the bay to Coronado Island to check out the fabulous beach and the beautiful old colonial Coronado Beach Hotel …. we also got treated to a vintage car rally which was awesome to watch …. all those really special old cars
In the evening we met up with one of our Empower Network Ten Ten Formula Team members and enjoyed a night out at a lovely Italian restaurant in the Gas Lamp …. tomorrow we change hotels to The Hilton BayFront where the rest of the Empower Network crew were staying.
