Last Night's Bike Ride to Balboa Park

Sunday Bike Ride

This is Balboa Park near Sixth and Upas, the halfway point of a 10.4 mile ride. I did pretty well getting up the hills: I got about halfway up the Florida Canyon hill each direction before getting off and walking and I got all the way up the hill to Bird Park. And thank you to the MTS driver for swinging wide around me on Park Blvd.

The Wizard of Oz

Last night I saw a touring production of The Wizard of Oz. I parked in Balboa Park and walked down Third Avenue to the Civic Theater. I forgot that the parking meters downtown don't apply after 6, but the walk down and back was very nice.

"By order of the Great and Powerful Oz, please take a moment to turn off your cell phone. If you don't comply, a house may fall on you, too!"

It was very fun. Lots of gay men in the audience and lots of gay jokes in the show: "I'm a friend of Dorothy's!"

Evening Walk

Walked to the Balboa Park Desert Garden and back. 4.6 mile round trip. Peed behind a bush for the first time in a long a time. Very fun.

Kiss Me Kate

At the Old Globe Theater to see Kiss Me Kate. Unfortunately, one of the actors was injured and tonight's performance was cancelled. But it's a lovely evening in Balboa Park and you can't complain about that.
