San Diego in a Nutshell

When you spend less money traveling, the more traveling you get to do. Even thought I am big believer in the Let's Go travel series, Frommers will always take a close second. The maps and the walking tours outlined in the book are excellent. A great bonus was a pretty good outlined itinerary depending on how many days you have in San Diego. The walking tour hit all the major sites. One complaint is that the authors do not list any hostels under the moderate accomodations. There are some killer hostels under 20 bucks a night right on the beach close to public transportation. Stay cheap when possible and meet exciting people. Still, there is nothing better to do in San Diego than lay out on the beach and watch time go by. For some reason, everyone in life is trying to go somewhere, but in San Diego you are already there.

Great Book!

I bought this book before I moved to San Diego, and have found it helpful for not only planning my first vacation out here, but also as a newcomer to San Diego. I am still using it often as I plan day trips to wine country or take my weekend guests to the zoo or Wild Animal Park. I have found the book very user friendly, easy to read, and accurate. A must have for San Diego!
