Hotel Del's Garden

We've been making each Thursday a "play day" for the past two months, taking the opportunity to enjoy some of the places and sights in the San Diego area, so Thursday before last we went to the Hotel del Coronado for breakfast.

Hotel Del Coronado, Not the "Seminole-Ritz"
Walking along the beach access to the hotel, we discovered the Hotel Del's vegetable and herb garden; square after square of beautifully tended and carefully labeled raised beds.

Herb Beds
It was very impressive.  Cindy particularly liked the chalkboard labels on each bed.



And, of course, having just been to Hotel Del and celebrating the Supreme Court's decision in Obergefell v. Hodges the following day, we just had to watch Some Like It Hot, which was filmed at Hotel Del in 1959: https://hoteldel.com/press/like-hot-filmed-hotel-del-coronado/ .

Always fun!
