Balboa Park, San Diego, CA sculpture

I had the opportunity to spend some time at Balboa Park yesterday with some out-of-town family. This is part of a terrific sculpture outside one of the many museums in the park.

Balboa Park in San Diego California - A Visual Tour

Sometimes you get more out of the visuals than a lot of commentary.

For a place like Balboa Park in San Diego, California, with a reputation as one of the nation's largest cultural urban parks, this is so true. With 15 museums, a variety of gardens, wonderful theatres, stunning architecture, and lots of green space Balboa Park near the downtown area is a real treat, even if you only have time to walk around.

William Johnson also wrote a wonderful post about the Old Globe Theatre in Balboa Park - do stop by and check it out.

Enjoy the tour. Perhaps it will wet your appetite to visit fabulous Balboa Park sometime.

Need a Little Inspiration? Try This

Balboa Park in San DiegoI was going to include this video in a larger article I am working on about Balboa Park in San Diego but thought better of it.

Much has been written about this park, which has a glut of museums and other attractions; indeed one of our favorite San Diego bloggers, William Johnson, recently shared his thoughts on this park. Read his article “San Diego Treasure…Balboa Park.” I will be sharing mine too based on a recent visit.

But I thought this video was worthwhile sharing on its own. I think it has a special message.

During my recent visit a week ago I was drawn to some music and a crowd along one of the main pathways. As I drew close it was immediately apparent why this musician had attracted so many folks to watch and listen.

I think you will be inspired by this short video. It may make you appreciate even more the gifts that you have, and to perhaps realize than many have it far worse than you do, but are able to overcome their issues with spirit and not let these issues hold them back.

I was tremendously impressed and inspired. Perhaps you will be too. (there is no "photo" for the video yet but it plays just fine)
