Staycation challenge San Diego: Day 10 - Victorian Day

Today, was Victorian Day in Old Poway Park.  This was the first year the Poway Historical Society decided to do a Victorian Day event.  There were lectures, costumes, tours of the Nelson House and a Victorian Tea.

Despite the torential rain, it was a fun afternoon.  The yellow roses are blooming beautifully already this year.

The Nelson House is an original home to Poway and has docents dressed in Victorian clothes every Saturday and Sunday morning.

Old Poway Park is just a charming place to wander, whether it's on Saturday for the farmer's market, or to visit the old trains in the train barn, or to see any of the many events that are always going on in the park.  Today it just happened to be Victorian Day.

It's even lovely at night if you fancy a stroll or you have just eaten at the Hamburger Factory and want to sit on a bench and relax.
