San Diego Vacation

This is the inaugural blog post. I'm not going for anything fancy here to begin with. We'll grow into it.

We drove down to San Diego at the beginning of June for a family vacation. We had fun. Somehow we lucked out and booked a decent hotel in Las Vegas (Double Tree south of town) - Ok it wasn't luck. I spent an entire night reading reviews. But we avoided most of LV's nastiness.

We stayed at the Residence Inn in La Jolla. It was a great location because it was less than 10 minutes from Sea World, it avoided much of the traffic closer to downtown SD and got us close to the beaches in northern SD County. It was easy to get out to the SD Wild Animal Park and it was across I-5 from the LDS Temple.

We visited attractions in the morning and the beach every afternoon. I think the only photos we have of the beach were taken on my phone. I'll try to post them along with photos from Sea World, the SD Zoo and Wild Animal Park.

Backyard vacation my foot. FYI, that is still the best comment on Sixintheworld.

The family looks great.

Talk to you soon
