    Weekend Trip San Diego - Must See Please!

    Spur of moment idea! Driving in this Saturday, spending the night and back Sunday afternoon.

    What would you recommend!

    What part of town to book a room?

    Thanks!

    Truthfully, I do not know what you can and can’t do with Covid-19. I will tell you the beaches are an option. Just make sure you have a face covering. Everywhere requires it.
    The weather is nice here so there is probably a lot you can do outside.
    Covid has things so messed up. There are nice hotels down near the airport but I have no idea of the prices. They usually are expensive but with limited tourism they may be cheap.

    Balboa Park is always a fun place to go.

    Less than ideal timing with COVID! Outside is great! Love beach.

    There’s a lot of hotel availability!

    Thx!

    La Jolla and Del Mar are two of my favorites! Stay out of the Gas Lamp, it’s been overrun with the homeless and some real crazies.

    Can't really go wrong with the San Diego Zoo as far as awesome place to visit.

    Book it in Vegas or Laughlin. SD and the entire state of California sucks right now since they've shut just about everything down.

    That is correct however a quick trip like this will not allow you to see everything there.

    Shoot, me & wife hopped down through most of the hotels up & down La Jolla + we stayed downtown a few times

    Pacific Terrace is the main one that I remember right on the beach

    + the Dana & the Catamaran on whatever that island is called a little ways down

    We stayed at the Catamaran last time, after living at a Airbnb in that tallest building at the end of the beach - seriously, we been there way too many times - my pocket def still feels it

    We’d rip to through San Diego 2-3x per summer

    It doesnt matter how good looking she is, some where, some one is tired of her shit.

    Got an offer to go to Vegas last weekend by a guy who is going with another couple. I don’t gamble and have been for fabulous shows. I’m feeling San Diego is a better choice.

    Another guy wants me to go with him to SD and his interest is bars, nightclubs. He can dropped me off at the beach!

    I believe bars are outside only also. You are making me feel like a hermit. I only go to the gym and work.
    I do know that the mayor of El Cajon is going to have a meeting today and tell police not to enforce mask, social distancing and essential businesses. At least someone here in the blue state is seeing the light. You can wait in line at Walmart but haircuts need to be outside.

    I hear the shows in Vegas are going to start back up in a few weeks. We all need a little R&R outside of the house at this point.

    An invite to Kelkel and GGR to work out tomorrow morning in Vista Ca at 6 am at The Gym. It’s in North county.
    Probably too far a drive for you.
    If Kelkel shows up, I will know from the legs. No, not in a gay way!

    See coyotes everyday on location. Kinda scrawny and we aren’t allowed to feed. The fed ones at different location are much larger and aggressive.

    There’s snakes in morning shade. Keep eyes open!!
