Oh San Diego, How I Love You.

I'm sitting here at my internship, writing about tourist attractions in San Diego, and it's making me realize how freaking gorgeous and amazing it is here, and how lucky I am to live here. It's crazy to think that there are people who dream of coming here some day, and I'm living it every day of my life, taking it for granted. Anyhoo, it really got me thinking about my favourite places in San Diego, so I thought that I would share some of them with you.



1. Coronado. 
Out of all the places in San Diego, Coronado is definitely one of my favourites, hands down. The beaches are wonderful, the food is fantastic, and there's gorgeous art galleries and amazing places to shop. Every 4th of July, my family goes to Coronado and we just spend the day there, and it's absolutely wonderful. One restaurant that we go to often in Coronado is Peohe's, a high-class restaurant right on the beach. They have some of the best onion rings I've ever had.




2. Balboa Park.
Of course, Balboa Park is a pretty gorgeous place, especially at night. I think it's so especially fantastic because of the myriad of attractions, such as the variety of museums and theaters. You simply cannot go to Balboa Park and be bored. Even if you're not doing anything especially interesting, it's still far too beautiful to not enjoy. I spent most of my childhood in Balboa Park, because I went to school there, so we would walk to the museums and stuff for field trips and when I was younger I took so much advantage of the beauty and elegance of the place.


3. SeaWorld.
Gosh, I'm just realizing how cliche these all are. They're such obvious tourist attractions. Clearly for good reasons, though. ANYWAYS, SeaWorld is an absolute MUST for tourists, or anyone for that matter. The rides, although there are only a few, are super fun, and the amount of interaction with the sea life, I think, is pretty cool. They're starting to open up more interactive things, like you can swim with the beluga whales and stuff like that now, which I think is super rad. Another super cool thing are the shows, which are clever and cute. Maybe I just like sea life in general, and that's why I find SeaWorld so great, but either way, it's wonderful.

I don't know, I was just thinking about how much I love San Diego. I also love San Francisco, it's so gorgeous. I think that's one main reason I really life San Diego, I like the look of cities at night and stuff, and I like the idea of never being bored because there's so much to do and so much to see. I also like such simple pleasures, like just laying somewhere beautiful and wasting your time taking pictures of sightseeing. I'M SO CLICHE, I'M SORRY. Anyways, yup, San Diego. My lovely city. <3
