Thursday October 16th

Last night when I was in my bed reading, my neightbors decided to have loud sex. Twice.
Not frustrating at all...

Anyhow - today starts the third week of my vacation in California... :)

Since I wasn't going to Mexico, I had to do something else. Looking through the tourist stuff, I found that they had an Air and Space museum in town. Just that info decided what to do, but right now they also had a section dedicated to Star Trek. Done deal - I headed over there!

(please note the wonderful SR-71 Blackbird to the right of the entrance)

Some models of different Enterprise's & some other Star Trek ships (just like in the movie "First Contact"):


A replica of the Original series bridge:


with Kirk's chair from the TV series. I sat in it. :)


Corridor, looking just like they did in TNG:


The captains quarters, with some things from his travels in TNG (can you spot the flute from Inner Light? :):

They had many different stuff from all series

as well as clothing:

A transporter pad had been built!

and a replica of the Guardian of Forever (from the TOS episode "The City on the edge of forever" of course, but you know this):

The museum had many nice "normal" aircrafts as well, but I won't public any of those, because it got better later on during the day when I went onboard the USS Midway - a aircraft carrier that now serves as a museum in the San Diego harbour:

Some photos from the flight deck:

San Diego from the flight deck:

I stayed on the Midway until it closed at 5pm and then went to see San Diego the city. I walked along the 4th, 5th and 6th street a bit and looked at the shops and resturants.

A nice town this is. :)

I ate at TGI Friday and then drove to the hotel.

Going back to LA tomorrow morning.

Apperently my plans involves a play to be seen and then go partying, but more of that in the next blog.
