Post-Preview Night Dinner

After the 6-9 p.m. preview night, Doug, our friend Craig from England (left) and I thoroughly enjoyed a quiet dinner at Donovan's Steak & Chop House, 6th and K St. in the Gaslamp District. The food was delicious; Jeremy's service "impeccable."

Craig attends Comic-Con every 2 years; so we had a lot to catch up on concerning our travels, his art collection, etc.
