Season’s Greetings San Diego tourists and local staycation tourists!!

This beautiful artwork, created circa 1893 by Eugene Grasset, the renowned Swiss decorative artist, captures a heartwarming scene. Angels are hard at work taking care of the mother and child — washing dishes, cooking, and sewing — giving Mary the precious time to simply breathe and care for her baby.

Wishing you joyful celebrations this holiday season — whether you’re lighting the candles of Hanukkah, celebrating Christmas or one of the well over 40 other winter holidays observed worldwide — and a happy, brighter New Year!

With love and warmth!

Explore the magical and historic mini train and carousel at Balboa Park!

"This rare, antique train is one of 50 remaining G16 models. Those with a fondness for old-fashioned and operating railroads and trains will particularly find this little adventure meaningful. Between breaks of the train rides occurring about every five minutes, the conductor is happy to chat. Operated by the San Diego Zoo, the ride runs a half-mile through four acres of the park. Well worth the $4 for each ticket, the mini-train ride lasts a little over three minutes."

🎠🚂 Have you explored the magical mini train and carousel at Balboa Park? Perfect for a fun family day out or a nostalgic ride, these charming attractions bring smiles to all ages! Check out this article to learn more about the history of these attractions: https://sdnews.com/loads-of-fun-at-the-balboa-park-mini-train-and-carousel/
