Last time I was in San Diego my hotel was located in Old Town.  I was by myself for that trip so that meant I spent pretty much every night wandering around the historical buildings and carts of traditional Mexican tourist crap.  Regardless of my rather lackluster description, I do actually really enjoy old town. There’s a lot going on at all times: It’s a sensory overload… (I also manage to get a lot of my Christmas shopping done here for some reason). Also, ironically enough given the vast quantities of Mexican food here, Old Town is the home of my favorite restaurant in San Diego: the Rust General Store.  Seriously, their provolone, apple, and prosciutto sandwich pretty much rocks my world… and since I’m too cheap to actually buy any of those cute, colorful mexican blankets that’s really the only reason I talked my friends into going there. I’m tricky like that.

Here are some photos (none of my sandwich though, that’s what instagram is for…)
