Donkey-o-tay and Dulcinea plus sarsaparilla

San Diego….Old Town State Historical Park- A preservation of the original part of San Diego from the early mission and presidio days up thorough the 1800’s. All the docents were in period costume for added authenticity. The mercantile sarsaparilla was refreshing late on a warm afternoon. The park is partnering with a local hotel to actually restore five period homes…..they will be hotel rooms when done but at least they will still survive. Probably a fun place to stay sometime. They have a pair of donkeys, named Donkey-o-tay and Dulcinea, since much of what was moved through here during that period was pulled by donkey.
