thebug Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Doing an RV trip in March. After heading to the Grand Canyon, Vegas and visiting a buddy in Quartzsite AZ, we will be heading to San Diego. Any tips would be appreciated. Myself, wife, kids (12 and 14.) Places to see, best burgers, best pints, etc etc. Sarcasm and insults are also welcome! Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IDBillzFan Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 San Diego Zoo is one of the best zoos, period. Sea World. Go early. Legoland A lot of fun if you've never been, but the rides are not so great (relatively speaking). If you look around, you can easily find "Kid free with paid adult" coupons. USS Midway is a great vessel and tour. For food, I haven't been in years, but look for Croces in the Gaslamp district. Opened by Jim Croce's wife. Sometimes their son (AJ) plays there. Dude is terrific. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nanker Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Take a sharp left when you get to Sandy Ago and head with the family to Tijuana! Everything is priced in Mexican dollars, but they're about $.45 US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently Croce's closed for good a year ago: http://www.nbcsandiego.com/news/local/Croces-Park-West-Closes-for-Good-366499371.html I've never been there, but Joshua Tree National Park is gorgeous if you're looking for something outdoorsy. The rock climbing there is supposed to be magnificent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
