Hey SDurbanite! GREAT pictures! I've always wanted to move out west and have finally decided to take the leap (blindly of course since I've never even been to SD)... I've set a goal to be in SD by next Spring. Your pics make me want to move tomorrow. Balboa Park is AMAZING! You seem to be the SD Guru... I posted a thread yesterday "wanna be in SD". Please check it out... I'd really appreciate your thoughts!
Again, thanks for posting the pics... unbelievable!

My day trip to San Diego: 28 photos
I took a day trip down to San Diego last Saturday just to relax, do some exploring, and get out of the LA smog for a day. I've been to San Diego a handful of times before, so my goal wasn't to try to see everything; my goal was to go back to some of my favorite spots (La Jolla, especially) and check out some of the various neighborhoods around town... sounds boring to a lot of people but this is what I love doing in my free time... just exploring neighborhoods. And I think San Diego is the ideal place to do just that. Here are 28 photos. First set is along La Jolla Scenic Dr N-- I walked the two miles of that road. In one of my shots you can see the skyline of the UTC and even make out the Mormon temple. Then I explored an area I've never been to before-- Mission Hills, along India St. I then drove through North Park, Hillcrest, City Heights, and Kensington. Coming back I saw the old Mission for the first time (it was nice, but it felt like a see it, saw it, now move on kind of thing). Then I went through Clairemont Mesa and saw some of the less glamorous parts of San Diego. I came full circle, returning to the La Jolla Shores area in the late evening. I could not believe how many Arizona license plates I saw down there. The place was literally teaming with zonies! I just spent the last four years of my life in Arizona (go sun Devils!) so I know exactly where they're coming from. Anyway, enjoy the photos. I'm going to post this on the national forum, to show them, that San Diego IS truly America's finest city.

^^^Great photos! I can tell that you got of the beaten track by venturing into Kensington, North Park, Hillcrest and Middletown (aka India Street)  |

Thanks... India St was a great find. It was only about two blocks and only had stuff on one side of the street, but that little stretch was packed with a lot of unique establishments. Next time I go back to SD I'm going to explore that whole area NW of downtown more in depth. Also, have you been to Mission Brewery? It was on the west side of I-5 on the other side of Washington st. In fact, now that I think of it, I've noticed a ton of microbreweries all over San Diego. |

Oh. My. GOD, I LOVED this place when I lived in SD. You just bought back a flood of memories.
We have El Pollo Loco here in the "A", but it just ain't the same!
Now if can get In-and-Out (pipe dream, i know) and Jack-in-the-Box (more likely), I'll be cool for a minute.
Still can't get a decent fish taco here eiither.
