Fun in San Diego

I feel like it has been along time since I updated my travel blog, but living in Minnesota we have to take advantage of our summer!  I spend as much time as I can at our summer place so that keeps me pretty busy!  However I recently spent a long weekend in San Diego visiting my son who lives in the area.  I always talk about international travel, but I loved San Diego so much I wanted to share my experience.

The San Diego Airport is really nice, I used Super Shuttle for my transportation to our hotel, I was really impressed with the service.  Of course they had my flight info and sent me a text letting me know when I had my luggage to text them my location and they picked us right up! 
I booked the Embassy Suites Downtown Bayside for several reasons, the location was perfect, free full breakfast and a Managers Happy Hour were great!

I mentioned the location of the hotel, here is a picture from our window.  Isn't this amazing?

I could not have asked for a better location, we were right across the street from the bay and so many things to do and see, in the four days I spent in San Diego I walked more than 20 miles.  We also took many lifts, and the train.  We spent on afternoon at Mission Beach which is beautiful.


I had to add the photo of the sushi burrito!  My daughter Paige went on this trip with me, and it was her birthday during the trip.  She really wanted a sushi burrito and we tried to find that for her birthday but we could not.  So when my son was taking us to the airport she found a place and finally she had her sushi burrito.  I am not a sushi fan but she loved it so if you go to San Diego give it a try!

I had been to San Diego one other time, and we stayed in the Old Town area and loved it but I was excited to see more of San Diego and it did not disappoint.  We spent time in Old Town, Gaslamp, Mission Beach, Little Italy, and the Bayside area where we were staying.  I felt the city was very tourist friendly, clean, and I always felt safe, however we never stayed out too late at night.  And I felt safe because my son is a Marine!

If you are looking for a fun trip I would recommend San Diego, there is so much to do and the weather was beautiful!
