San Diego Travel Guide

February 2, 2022
-
Posted by Lauren Rodych-Eberle

San Diego gives you all the options – the water, hiking, sports, so many family-friendly parks, and food food food! So, it’s a great location to go with kids and make it a family trip, or you can go to simply drink at every brewery you can find. It’s a build-your-own-adventure kind of destination!

Activities

  • Petco Park – even if you’re not into watching the Padres play baseball, go there to eat all the food inside…some of the best restaurants in San Diego set up shop there
  • Hikes/Trails – there are so many hikes you can check out! Torrey Pines has super easy trails and you get to walk on the sandstone and see the beach
  • Old Town – walk around Old Town, eat there, and pick up food to take with you, from root beer to ice cream to chocolate from around the world
  • Balboa Park – you could spend days there…so many different museums. I hit up the Japanese Friendship Gardens and the Model Railroad Museum

Other activities that I didn’t get a chance to do, but were recommended and/or researched:

  • Depending what you’re into, there is Safari Park, the San Diego Zoo, and Lego Land
  • Golf at the Torrey Pines Golf Course
  • Hikes: Sunset Cliffs, Bayside Trail, Point Loma Tidepools and Bluffs Trail

Now to the Food…

Restaurants

  • Breweries – there are so many amazing breweries in San Diego. The breweries often have games and food trucks, and babies are allowed in! Two I got to enjoy were Alesmith (loved the open space and brightness of this one during the day) & Mikkeller
  • Top of the Market – best to book a reservation. Delicious fish! Gorgeous view and lots of areas to walk around there
  • Barra Barra Saloon – Mexican-cuisine in Old Town. The enchiladas are highly recommended, and the spicy margharitas! (If you have a chance to order Carne Asada Fries anywhere, do it!)
  • Einstein Bros. Bagels – get the potato bagel!!!
  • In-N-Out Burger – this is not my favourite fast food burger, which could leave me up for debate, but if it’s your thing…it’s there!

Other restaurants that I didn’t get a chance to try, but were recommended and/or researched:

  • Pizza Port – supposed to be really great Za!
  • Fish Market – seafood; right on the bay for beautiful views; it’s San Diego tradition, nothing fancy – just good food
  • Ironside Fish & Oyster – in Little Italy, cool venue and great food
  • Water Grill – known for having really good seafood
  • Cafe Gratitude – cute little restaurant with vegan food
  • Plumeria – vegetarian Thai food

Does anyone else think of Will Ferrell in Anchorman every time they say San Diego?! Please tell me I’m not alone!

I am the owner of Miss Lauren’s Music Studio, where I teach voice, piano, ukulele, and preschool music classes – via Skype and within Calgary. I am a Senior Consultant for Pampered Chef, which has inspired me over the years to write two cookbooks (plus one mini ebook cookbook), that have food preparation made easy in the forefront.

My Beginner Piano eCourse is fully out in the worl My Beginner Piano eCourse is fully out in the world!!

As of yesterday, the full course is released, and this wave of relief just washed over me!! The amount of time, energy, and resources that goes into these courses is more than I would have ever known, but I’m so happy, and grateful to have them available to people for a lifetime, and also to have a way to continue to offer music to many more people, in many more homes, for unlimited time!!

Tomorrow I’ll release a blog that will answer all the top questions I’ve been asked about my Preschool Music eCourse and my Beginner Piano eCourse, so you can see if they are a fit for you or anyone you know!!

But now, tell me a goal you’re dreaming up - work-related or not!!

I’m overdue for 5 Fun Facts, so let’s pair it I’m overdue for 5 Fun Facts, so let’s pair it with these five fun photos!

1. I didn’t like anything grapefruit before I had Collins, and now I’m always like, “Give me all the grapefruit sparkling water!”

2. I’ve always had multiple jobs from the time I was a teenager…I sum it up to me thinking that variety is the spice of life. 

3. I believe ketchup and mustard belong on breakfast egg sandwiches. 

4. If you asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up, I would have said “a mom!” I still think it’s the greatest gift in the whole entire world. 

5. Even though I said variety is the spice of life, I am wildly good with repetition for an incredible amount of time…the same food, the same song, the same walk…I don’t know if it’s patience or just insanity, but I don’t get sick of the same thing over and over and over and over and over again. 

Give me a fun fact about you!!
