    I spent the first fifty years of my life in San Diego. There is a LOT to do there! Big John hit a lot of the highlights. If you like to fish and have the time, take a half day boat out of Mission Bay or Point Loma. If you like seafood, check out Point Loma Seafood. It is one of San Diego's best kept secrets. A squid sandwich and a Anchor Steam on tap is hard to beat. Café La Fe (if its still there) has great Mexican food but I wouldn't go there at night. For golfers, there are more golf courses in San Diego county than there are in all of Colorado.
    Above all, have fun!

    I've spent a fair amount of time there.

    The USS Midway museum is fantastic, just south of there down the boardwalk is a fun little shopping area called Seaport village with some decent eats.
    Alberto's Carne Asada is fantastic.
    Point Loma seafood is some of the best I've ever had.
    The Zoo is great. You could spend all day there, but it doesn't sound like you are taking a vacation there, so you probably don't have time for this, unless you REALLY love zoos.

    Forget about Tijuana. It really is a shithole.

    I've actually heard that the Denver Zoo is better than San Diego, but that was just one person's opinion.

    some of my favorite eating spots are Taco Surf, South Beach Bar and Grill, Hodads, Shades, Pacific Beach Bar and Grill for brunch.
    We love wondering along the Boardwalk in Pacific beach finding places to,have a drink and snacks. The people watching is amazing.

    Having been to both in the past year, I liked the SD zoo better, but that could be because it was new to me. I've been to the Denver Zoo dozens of times.

    Her gripe was that every other display at the San Diego Zoo was wild boars or prairie dogs.
