I and my wife moved to California not too long ago, and every time we go out, trying to see some new places, new things.

This time we went to La Jolla California.

Want to say, La Jolla is amazing Place. The views, landscapes, shops, restaurants, museums, everything they have there, you name it...

First, our stop was in the few museums on Prospect St. There 3 or 4 museums of art just in that 1 street.

My eyes stopped at some unusual paintings of Dali and Da Vinci. LOL, these paintings made me smile, but I understand the art can be understood in different ways and be appreciated. Here are some pics I did which made my day :-)

What was in their mind when they created this art and they would answer. It is definitely unique art!

A Little bit more down the street there was a display of old Cars. I made a few pictures because they look super cool. Check it out:

1904 de Dion Bouton roadster

"De Dion-Bouton was a French automobile manufacturer and railcar manufacturer operating from 1883 to 1932. The company was founded by the Marquis Jules-Albert de Dion, Georges Bouton, and Bouton's brother-in-law Charles Trépardoux."

Aren't they gorgeous cars ?

After that, we went closer to the beach.

I have heard there is a place where you can see seals and sea lions. And it is true. That place was closer than I was expecting.

There were so many of them, and they are not afraid of people at all. Some times they even pose for the good picture:) like this one for example lol.

LA JOLLA is a great place to go if you like an adventure with not much of a walking.
