To folks in San Diego:
i'm planning to go there with my gf in a week or so for a couple of days just to have fun and relax... What would you recommend to do/see there?Thanx!

i just got back from san diego. was very unimpressed. id recommend taking the lady out to coronodo and having a few drinks and watch the sunset at hotel del coronodo. i did that, it was pretty sweet. other than that, go to the zoo and sea world. only good thing about te city of san diego was fifth street.

the Gaslamp has a really good nightlife. I'd check that out.
Venture up to north county. Lots of cool beaches.

la jolla was pretty cool. check that out. you need to rent a car for that though.

Thanx guys..
Mattyd, im actually thinking of renting a car, but found out that it's a problem unless you're over 21 :(

check out the Kava Lounge and the Casbah for music. off the beaten path a little.

my gf says Mint is ok for clothing
and i 've heard that Blends on Market st. is a cool shoe store
Casbah is good for music
there is supposedly alot of good restuarants in Hillcrest but i don't know

go to la jolla.
and when you are talking to locals, constantly pronounce it phonetically. even after they correct you. its the little laughs that make a vacation memorable.

Obviously someone didnt know where to go. San Diego is filled with thousands of little gems to see. From secret beaches to amazing ecological reserves. Art shows, music, good food, good people...
This place has it going on. All of it. been here for about 2 years now, loving every instant!
let me know if you want a few pointers on some of the lesser-known higher-quality spots here in SD.

Del Mar Racetrack on Friday evenings. Great bands, hottest girls on the planet, high class scene for betting on horses....
Baker's beach--Lajolla (nude). The best surf, and I saw an old couple making out with a boombox next to them, playing Peaches and Cream. Enough said.
Gaslamp, Pacific and Ocean Beaches for drinking and nectars. Also, in Pacific Beach, you can score schwag from this neo-hippie lurker named Ethan. He's this white dude with nappy ass dreds. Go up to him and whisper the eagle has landed, and he'll slip you a sack with enough stems to build a small cottage on the beach.
Tijuanna-- to see old men selling Jesus statues at 4:00 am, little 5 year old girls selling chiclets (gum), and to score steroids on the cheap.
Hillcrest: super Andrew Cunanen Gay. Best smoothies in town.
Oh, I saw Living Colour at some dive in the Gaslamp, but I forget the name.

definately hit up downtown la jolla (prospect st.). its got some good restaurants/art galleries/ shops/beaches . too bad your going with your girl though, its hottie haven right nowz!
downtown sd is a good place to check out.

Lived in SD for 4 years. Some of my favorite spots:
Balboa Park, Coronado, Downtown La Jolla, Pacific Beach, and (for nightlife) Gaslamp District.
More "local" spots:
The cliffs - Beautiful view of the ocean that you have to walk to. It's by UCSD. You'll probably need to ask students how to get there.Extraordinary Desserts (google it)

i was out visiting my brother who lives there. even with u2 in town, i was bored out of my tits. the people there are very uninteresting. i had my sox hat on and in every bar someone would be like 'hey! the red sox won the world series!' after about the third or fourth time i was like 'what??? the red sox won the world series!?!? get the fuck outta here! drinks on me! wooooo!'
