This is pp who originally suggested San Diego. We have family there and go often - though we generally don’t do the touristy stuff. The zoo is great, as is balboa park right next door. They have great museums (unfortunately not free like here). There’s a carousel, mini train ride, and some neat cactus/desert gardens. You may like old town. This past trip, we went to miners gems and minerals http://www.minersgemsandminerals.com/ which I had never heard of despite living in San Diego for my first 14 years and visiting at least 2x a year since. For $5 your kid can pan for gems and minerals. My kid and his cousins loved it and came away with a small bag of beautiful rocks. So cool. The aquarium is the birch aquarium in La Jolla and it’s great as well. If you’re up for a little drive, Julian and the cuyamacas are fun (and I think you can make kind of a loop with the the Anza borrego desert). You would have a blast.

Yeah, I just looked up the flights to San Diego and they are long, but under $500. I am used to international travel so it won't be so bad for me. I rarely have flights for less than 8 hours.

$500 for me alone. Unfortunately, I can not split the credit with other travels.

I have been considering CA... What could we do in San Diego?


San Diego is great, and I bet you could find tickets for less than $500pp

With kid: zoo. Seaworld. Legoland (not in San Diego). Beach. Drive to desert. Aquarium.
There you go! 4 days, right there.


This sounds fantastic! Thank you!


NP. It's a GREAT city for kids. We once took a walk down Point Loma and saw a huge submarine coming in. My 2 year old would have lost his mind (he was not yet born).

I have a $500 airline credit that I need to use by May and I need suggestions on where to go.
A few caveats, I'm pregnant and would be traveling with DH and 4 yo DS. I would prefer to travel in April or May (due to a lot of work travel beforehand). It has to be somewhere warm- at least 70 degree guaranteed. I would probably go for no more than 5 days including travel (because I need to hoard my leave for maternity leave).
