Title: Going to be in San Diego in May Post by: Statler on March 19, 2009, 07:56:00 AM Wife has a med conference and I'm coming in for the tail end of it (fnaaar).
Will have three-year-old in tow. Staying downtown at Embassy Suites at harbor. So....anywhere we absolutely have to go eat? Looking for best food locally. We'll have a car. Zoo is on the list as the Little One looooves zoos. What else should we do? Title: Re: Going to be in San Diego in May Post by: Ivan on March 19, 2009, 11:41:31 AM What else should we do? If you'll have a day to yourself, rent a Duc and ride Palomar Title: Re: Going to be in San Diego in May Post by: erkishhorde on March 19, 2009, 11:45:20 AM San Diego wild animal park... Isn't Sea World down there too? I forget, is the wild animal park different from the zoo? :P
Title: Re: Going to be in San Diego in May Post by: hbliam on March 21, 2009, 08:59:49 PM -Zoo is good but Sea World is the best "park" in California bar none. (IMO)
-Stay away from Mexico, not safe right now. -Con wife into watching kid one day so you can sneak off for a Palomar run. I bet there is a bike to be borrowed somewhere down there. -Can't comment on the food, I'll leave that to a SD local. -Petco Field is a great place to catch a ballgame.
