What to do in San Diego (2-3 day tour)

    I am taking my parents to San Diego. I guess one day would be spent in Sea World. Could someone recommend other good places in/around San Diego.

    TIA :)

    Haha... yeah, the zoo is cool. Balboa Park is also really nice, that's close to the San Diego Zoo. Downtown always has a bunch of interesting places to visit. It really just depends on the type of things you want to do. Go to at least ONE beach... Ocean Beach, Pacific Beach, Mission Beach ( I prefer OB, but that's just me.)

    Ocean Beach is the best. Go take a walk on the peir, get some great good. I reccommend "Shades". Right on the beach with good happy hour.

    If you want a nice day at the beach go to La Jolla Shores. Very clean and family type of beach.

    If you like to shop head to Mission Valley Mall.

    Let's all consider than an open invitation. Free food at Denise's place whenever someone visits san diego :p Family friendly entertainment kinda sucks, but hey, the food is free :p

    You should go on a tour of all the scenes from Anchorman - categorically the best comedy of the last 10 years.

    Who's with me?!

    Nobody?

    Hahaha... Keith, one thing I've picked up about you -- you always seem to manage to throw in a reference to Anchorman, no matter what you're talking about!

    I'm not sure if that makes you crazy or talented ;)

    It's just that good. I just ordered The 40-Year Old Virgin on DVD, too. Another classic :)

    Oh, come on. Who can resist the comedy stylings of Will Ferrell? :)

    Besides, it's the job that drives me crazy. Right now I'm writing 500 words on the genius of marketing of Snakes on a Plane. Who can stay sane under such conditions?

    I hear ya, Keith.

    Oh, did I mention that in addition to your insanity, you're totally awesome too? I'm leaving you now to stay up for another four hours and wish I could fall asleep. Have fun writing about weird movies.
