San Diego Trolley Tour

After spending the morning in Colonaro came back over the harbor bridge back into the city.

San Diego city from the South

Next stop, Balboa Park, site of the 1916 Worlds Fair.

Balboa is a large Park, on a hill overlooking the City.

The Buildings are in a Spanish style, to me more reminiscent of Tuscany.

A total departure from the rest of the city.

Although some areas are more Spanish Mission.

Even Mexican.

From there to Little Italy, not very scenic but a nice place to eat

The Trolley Tour then went to 'Old Town' which is Mexican/ Western area, site of the original San Diego town.
