Peohe's

This evening, I went back on the ferry to Coronado Island to a restaurant that I found where when I visited earlier in the week. I took more pictures on the ferry on the way over, as it was approaching evening time and the light was starting to fade. Even though my reservation wasn't until later, they were able to let me in half an hour earlier, which was good, because I wanted to get the earlier ferry back to the other San Diego ferry port so I could visit other shops.

After I had been seated, with a nice bay view, the light started to fade fairly quickly. The twilight doesn't last very long this far South, and the light goes from day to night almost instantaneously. Peohe's doesn't have bright lighting - in fact, the lighting was so low, you almost couldn't tell that there was any at all, and the fake flickering electric "candles" in a jar didn't really case much light either. I could barely see the main course or the pudding speciality: Godiva Lava cake. When the bill game, I had to use the flashlight application on my phone to provide sufficient illumination to be able to read it!

Since the lava cake was so nice, I decided to return back to the hotel afterwards rather than visit Ghirardelli's for a pudding. The ferry journey back is slightly quicker, as it can take a more direct route due to the way the lanes are organised in the bay. One thing that the navy does do, though, is illumination: the fleet was all lit up! With lights! And this lot didn't go out. It was very pretty, but photographs don't tend to come out very well.
