THis morning DIane and I woke early and headed out for a run. At the suggestion of our hosts, we hopped a low fence and took a gentle run along the streets of a gated community just across from their house. there were beautifully landscaped yards, huge houses and a golf course. not our style at all. but we did love the gardens. They were amazing !

THe class today went very well. Most of the class got most of their PCB layout done. Even though the circuit was proscribed, there was plenty of room for personalization\u00a0 in the layout , shape,\u00a0 decoration, colors etc of the board. We were so\u00a0 impressed with the students technical ability and creativity . Again. sorry no pictures here.. but I will show pictures of the baords when they are all submitted.\u00a0

One thing that did make today differnt is that it was raining !.. San Diego only gets abotu 12 inches off rain a year (compared to .. say.. 50 for houston)\u00a0 \u00a0. The trouble is that San Diegoins\u00a0 (?)\u00a0 dont know how to drive in the rain. After class diane and I had a half baked plan to drive in to san diego to see the zoo.\u00a0 If we were\u00a0 able to leave at 2 PM.. and take 25 minutes to get to the zoo.. we’d still have like 2 and a half hours to look around.\u00a0 The trouble was, the highways were down to a crawl because of the rain. waht was supposed to be a 25 minute drive turned into an hour and twenty minutes.. no fun !\u00a0

The San DIego Zoo is famous for all sorts of things.. one thing I didnt know it was famous for was being so expensive.. it’s $75 \/ person.. so $75 per person , only an hour and a half to see the zoo and pouring rain all conspired to change out mind. No zoo for us, instead we headed to one of the many museams that are near the zoo in Balboa park. We chose the Fleet sceince museum.. Also pricey.. $25 \/ person.. ($22 for me since im older than 65).. the museum was cute.. but nothing to amazing. It was defintely geared towards younger kids.. many of the exhibits liek the electrical stuff were pretty dated. still it was fun to be out of the rain !\u00a0 \u00a0Here’s their poor tesla coil stuck in a cage and not operating..\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our tix included entry to the IMAX theatre where we saw a good peice on the resurgence of blue whales. .. I leanred lots abotu whales in the film…. did you knwo tha blue whales poop about 55 gallons of brigh orange krill leftovers that help fertilize the ocean.. I didnt know\u00a0 that.

I also didnt knwo that this museum had one of the longest operating Imax projectors in the world. THye had the old one out on display. WHo knew they were this complicated ?\u00a0
