Things To Do
Annie's Canyon Trail
We went here for a hike in December, and it was beautiful! It's a quick hike, but lots of uphill and downhill. Wear closed-toed shoes!!
Torrey Pines State Natural Reserve
This hike is beautiful! Lots of good sights and different trails! One of my favorites - Braidan
San Diego Zoo
The zoo is a blast...one of Hampton's favorites! The polar bears and pandas are two of our favorite exhibits!
Petco Park
Padres game!
Highway 101
Check out the coast highway's beach cliffs, ocean views, and boutiques for your wives and girlfriends to visit. I recommend starting at D Street in Encinitas and going as far south as La Jolla (bonus points if you walk).
Stone Brewing World Bistro & Gardens – Liberty Station
An IPA wonderland. Check out Liberty Station while you're at it! The brewery itself is in Escondido.
Pacific Beach
Great nightlife, food, and beaches!
Seal Rock
Have you ever wanted to punch a baby seal? Now's your chance! The great white sharks should be gone if you choose to kayak here - it's actually pretty cool.
Ponte Winery
Wine country in Temecula is a blast. But be warned, bring some water for the heat if you're not going to be indoors.
USS Midway Museum
I walked to this place from my house once. I crippled myself for a few days in the process but the museum itself is actually pretty cool; located in the San Diego harbor, I definitely recommend it for history and military enthusiasts.
Little Italy
Braidan and I went here for lunch and cannolis while checking out downtown! Remember to say "Vaffanculo" to your waiters to say thank you.
Westfield UTC
A massive outlet mall with a ton of restaurants. If you can make a reservation at Din Tai Fung ahead of time you should!
LEGOLAND California
Time to get bricked-up.
Pechanga Resort Casino
Bet your mortgage on black.
la Jolla Shores Beach
La Jolla is basically a prettier, less pretentious Hollywood Hills.
