Lees than 5 miles from the Mexican border, Chula Vista is a lazy little town on the San Diego bay. Only 10 minutes south of San Diego, it enjoys all the amenities of a modern city while still holding onto the popular mantra of mañana. If you don't speak at least a little Spanish, mañana means tomorrow and it is more than a word, it is an attitude. It's like, "wow, I really need to mow the grass but I think I can wait until mañana" or "hmm, I wonder if that growth on my head might be malignant, oh well I can go to the doctor mañana". You get the idea.
Traveling to Chula Vista had absolutely nothing to do with the Roadshow cause, it was purely to say we went as far south in California as you can go without leaving the US and to enjoy a little memorial day rest.

One of the interesting things about this mañana attitude is just that, just about everything can wait until tomorrow. Like leaving Chula Vista for instance, maybe mañana.
PS: This lion, a resident of the San Diego Wild Animal park takes a snooze on the roof of a parked Land Rover. LOOK! There's a gazelle...ahh, mañana.
