I thought that the Sofia hotel was great for my visit. It was close to my work conference, and the cleaning staff was excellent! The front desk team members were very friendly.

La Jolla Cove

Enjoy world-class shopping, restaurants and beaches in the sparkling “Jewel City” along the ocean.

As the sun goes down in La Jolla, the water flows into the rocky areas, covering up most of the tide pools. When photographing this scenery, a person walked on the tide pools, preparing to go into the water and surf. One of the most interesting things that happened in this image is the way the river pours into the tide pools and then recedes back, repeating this over and over again, while people tend to walk over them, either to photograph or to swim.
