I did the Sunset Cliffs booth again this year at the Whale Watch Festival. The festival was packed as usual with long lines to get in. I was surprised how many people had seen the article in the Union Tribune this morning about the erosion problems in the Park.
The whale watching platform is the best place to view the action. The park rangers said there were some sightings reported early in the morning on Saturday.
I looked but could not see any.
By mid-morning the sailboats were just starting to appear in the bay.
I decided to go into the Lighthouse. The original kitchen and bedrooms are still there and it has it has a little herb and vegetable garden in the back.
This is one of the bedrooms with vanity table (above) and the kitchen below.
It must have had it's charms to live here out on the Point with views and beautiful light even though a little cramped inside the tiny lighthouse.
Sunday was sunny and mild and the crowds were even larger. Scripps Institute of Oceanography gave some great presentations at the tidepools which is one of the highlights of the event.
This is right outside the visitors center and gift shop and is a great perch for viewing in all directions.
Back at the table we had some native plants on display and copies of the Park brochure. Most visitors were only here in San Diego for a couple of days but said they were planning on visiting the Cliffs to watch the sunset before leaving.
