Old Point Loma Lighthouse

Interested in visiting a lighthouse? Yes, please.

It was a beautiful little sightseeing place with fun sidewalks and spectacular views.   

Other than my crazy wind-blown hair, I like this one of the Payne girls. 

They were so fun to watch at this place. Rachel couldn't wait to see the ocean and as soon as it was in sight she repeated over and over again, "LOOK Mom, the ocean! I see it!".  

There it is! The lighthouse! How'd you like to live in that sucker?

This picture is hilarious! This scenario happened just about 50 times a day. While they were worried about Maggie killing herself, I took pictures. haha! Maggie received many new nicknames on this trip one of them being, Maggie 'Death wish' Payne. I try to explain to people just how crazy Maggie is, but I really don't think they believe me. Let's just say Tricia and Caitlin believe me. haha!

The inner workings of the lighthouse... I believe it's called a Fresnel Lens...

Up the spiral staircase to the top! Maggie's expression: "Woooe, I'm actually allowed to climb these!"

A few iphone pictures... 

Rachel made it all the way to the top!

Stop! Everyone look up and smile! Perfect place for a picture... except the whole Maggie trying to get down and fall down the staircase thing... 

Okay STOP again! Another good spot! Jeez, I'm starting to annoy myself! haha, thanks for putting up with all these pictures guys. Ya'll are such good sports. 

Seriously though, look at that view...

Maggie enjoyed running all over the place. Can't you tell just by looking at these pictures that she's a quick one? Someone catch that baby!

Whatcha see there Rachel?

There's San Diego! I love this picture in black and white...

But I love it in color too! Which one do you like better?

I had such a blast at this place! Outings like these just hit the spot.   

Oh Maggie, I can never get enough of you. That smile makes my heart happy.

Cheers to another beautiful day in San Diego!
