Yes, we want to move here. This is why:

Here is me wearing the Hulk

La Jolla is probably my favorite place to vacation. We go to the Montage once a year. It's paradise if you ask me. I would love to move there, but wow, it is expensive.

Cali is certainly nice but very expensive. Worse than northern virginia. I wish you best of luck there. We lived in Santa Maria for a year and then moved back to Va. Do you have any family there or are you and your wife childless?

Love La Jolla, I live about 20 miles away. Not sure about living there though, tons of tourists.

Hope you had a great stay at the La Valencia. Do they still have salt water in their pool?

We can sell our house and buy a condo with a little extra cash. We live in a wealthy area now, so it should work. No kids, both are retired, and I'm a professional gambler (I invest in stocks )

We stayed at La Val, but never went in the pool. Spent our time walking and shopping and talking to real estate agents. Next time we'll hit the pool.

Isn't the Montage in Laguna? Or have they opened a second location? I think the La Jolla Beach and Tennis Club is a great place to stay in SD.

Make sure you grab lunch at George's in La Jolla, eat up on the roof top terrace and sit against the glass wall if you can.. One of my favorite places to dine.
