A certain friend of mine has been telling me what a dump it is. Disease, poors, filth, smog, crime. I have never been, but isn’t San Diego, for the most part, a pretty dope place to be?
Tell me about San Diego...
- Thread starter jellyfish10
- Start date
Founded by the Germans, the name roughly translates to 'a whale's vagina'
San Diego has a wonderful climate
for the entire year. Great view of the
Pacific Ocean. Tourist attractions are
S.D. Zoo, Sea World, Balboa Park,
S.D. Yacht Club.

Used to hang out there. A close friend was a member of the La Jolla Country Club. Loved playing there but their Eggs Benedict wash the best I’ve ever had.
One of my thrills in San Diego was
visiting the San Diego Yacht Club.
My friend and his wife took my wife
and I on their yacht for a tour of the
harbor. Afterwards we ate at Yacht
Club and saw the trophy room.

San Diego is like a geriatric Los Angeles. Clean, nice and extremely milque toast.
I’ve heard the homeless will piss all over you when you step off the plane.
The one time I went, there were rival gangs fighting in the middle of street fighting with tridents and other medieval weaponry.
Nice Maritime Museum too. They have the ship they built for Master and Commander if you are into that type of thing. Their is a naval base there. When I was a kid I got to "impress" a sailor guide with what I knew about a destroyer escort's armament. I wanted to see the submarines but that part was closed to tourists on the day we went.
That’s more of a Trump thing.So you’re going?
Very cool city; like it way better than most of LA. Gaslamp, Old Town, and Coronado all awesome areas to check out.
Went a few years ago for the Bears @ Chargers game. Stayed for a week at a beach house on Mission Beach.
- The zoo was everything it was cracked up to be except no rhinos. They sell booze there.
- Gaslamp District sucked. Like, sucked bad. Bunch of pretentious assholes. I'll never go back there.
- The bars up and down Mission Beach/Pacific Beach were awesome. Way better people who were there to have a good time and drink instead of be someone they aren't (Gaslamp).
- QualComm Stadium is an absolute shithole. I thought the worst football stadium in the world was FedEx Field (DC) until I went to QualComm.
- The airport is tiny. Like just a tad bigger than DSM.
- TJ is a short uber away. Go at your own risk.

Along those lines...I loved visiting the USS Midway that is in SD on display. In fact, I went two times in the same week when I was out there a few years ago. If you have any interest in maritime or military(Navy) history I am sure you would enjoy this walking tour.
