On Friday morning we headed to downtown San Diego for the world's biggest comic book convention, the San Diego Comic-Con. We saw lots of neat stuff and weird people, and bought lots of comic books and action figures and t-shirts. (We even got to see the Batmobile -- the one from the original 1960s TV series!)
It was fun!
