To Do in San Diego

As our vacation approaches, I'm getting less stressed about our travel and my lack of clothes and more and more excited about the things I want do to in sunny San Diego. Here's a little list, in no particular order.

  • Float in the backyard pool in the early morning and at night after Lucas goes to bed.

  • Take Lucas to LEGOLAND.

  • Swim in the Pacific Ocean (on previous visits, we've only gone in up to our knees because it was so chilly; I'm hopeful that it will be warm enough to actually swim this time!).

  • Eat some fish tacos.

  • Eat some In-n-Out burger.

  • Play at the neighborhood playground--it is really awesome!

  • Of course, enjoy some quality time hanging out with my sister and her hubby.

  • Visit a Trader Joe's (silly, right? Some how TJ's seems even better and more authentic in California!)

  • Spend a day exploring Balboa Park (we haven't had time for this on previous visits).

  • Take Lucas to see some real helicopters and airplanes at Miramir.

  • Strap Lucas (and his car seat!) into Uncle Mike's fast car for a not-too-fast (hear me Uncle Mike?) drive.

  • Enjoy a night out either alone with Abel or with Sarah and Mike (if they can secure a babysitter!) in a swanky neighborhood like the Gaslamp Quarter.

What do you think, Sar, can we fit this all in?

  1. Mmmm... fish tacos and Balboa Park - your post makes me want to go back to visit, but NOT run a race this time! Enjoy your trip!

  2. Don't forget a visit to Old Town for some authentic Mexican food! :) I can't wait!

    btw, are you bringing Lucas's turtle float with you? and don't forget his life jacket!

  3. Lucas is probably the perfect age for the Scripps Aquarium in La Jolla.

    Have a great trip. We've taken Will to San Diego twice (both times when his dad was there on a business trip), and have had a great time both times.

  4. In n Out is always on our list when we go to visit my parents in Palo Alto. This summer we went twice!
    Enjoy those fish tacos too! Yum!
