I probably wouldn't recognize it. I miss the scent of the Eucalyptes trees there during the summer when they warm up. There's something intoxicating about that scent mingled with the sea breeze. One of these days I'll drag the hubster back there- I think he'd love Coronado.
It's 125 degrees where I live (in the summer and everything goes either up hill toward the mountains or downhill to the lake... bicycles aren't going to cut it here...
Good nite.
Oh... and... speaking of Old Town....
El Indio is still open.

THE TACO STAND ???
(Machine translation is still in its infancy - but still a great help for us "news addicted". But it sure makes for some funny wording!)
That's the place! The only concession they've made is they've added a little sit-down area, and fountain soft drinks so you don't have to go buy them next door anymore.
Best cheap meal in town, a sack from El Indio, then up the hill to dine on the Presidio lawn.
