The origin of the name "La Jolla" is uncertain, but the two most popular theories are that it either derives from "La Joya," meaning "The jewel" or the Native American term "Woholle," meaning hole in the mountains.
Either of those etymologies apply to Sam though. She's probably gonna kill me if she reads this. But the joke was worth it.
Yeah, we went to La Jolla Cove today to mainly check out the places that were around. We found an exhibit that had art by Dr. Seuss on display.

| How cocky are these guys, naming themselves legendary for just being the exhibitors, huh? |
 |
| Hey, it's Sam-I-Am, and I'm with Sam! It's like... a pun or something. |
I was especially impressed with the statues that he made.

| Rudolph never recovered after never being able to join in any reindeer games. |

| Sam said this guy had my haircut. I agree. |
This one kinda reminded me of a certain AP Physics teacher we had on Mira Mesa's campus.

| All he needs is a gray hoodie, huh? |
Afterwards, we pulled the incredibly cliché couple move of watching the sunset on the beachside rocks. We sat at La Jolla cove, watching the orange orb of a sun slowly sink below the horizon.
Just kidding. We both had to go to the bathroom. So before the sun set, we looked around the cove to see where we could answer nature's call.
Of course, given the capitalistic society that we live in, literally EVERY place we visited had bathrooms reserved only for customers, so our hunt for a restroom ended up becoming a hunt for where the cheapest place to eat was. And we were in La Jolla, so no matter where we went, this was probably gonna be at least a 20 dollar bathroom break.
We ended up finding a Cold Stone here, so our pee session only cost us 10 dollars, which was much cheaper than the usual arm and a leg blood sacrifice required by La Jolla restaurants.
RFotD: Yes, there were port-a-potties near the beach. No, they were not worth it.
