GO San Diego!

 
I feel like we have been non stop going the last few months. We have lived in Arizona for almost a year now and in Manchak fashion have waited until the absolute last moment to actually see some of the sights. This weekend we decided that we needed to go see San Diego before we move back to Spokane in like 3 weeks. So Joel got us each a GO San Diego card; which for those of you who don't know is basically a card that you purchase for a flat rate and then for a specified number of days you can get into about 75 different attractions in San Diego including some pretty cool places. Let me just say we made the most out of our short 3 day trip to SD.
 Joel insisted on me planning down to the minute where we would be each day. So I set to creating our itinerary and on Wednesday night when Joel got home from work we left for San Diego. Thursday morning our adventure really began, and over the next 3 days we visited so many fun places including; the San Diego Zoo, SeaWorld, Knotts Berry Farm, LegoLand, we went kayaking, speed racing, on a harbor cruise tour, and we even made it to the beach. Some of you may be thinking WOW you could spend a day alone at each of those attractions, and you would be right. But we were pretty adamant on getting our money worth and seeing everything we possibly could! We were so tired every night but it was so worth it! We had so much fun and we know that it is little trips like these that we will look back on years from now and remember fondly :)


GoCar Tours was seriously one of the funnest things we did. You get to ride around downtown San Diego in this little mini car and it's a GPS guided tour.So as we drove the little lady came threw the speakers and told us all about the sights as we passed them!
SeaWorld was another favorite. We went there 2 different days actually!





The Wavehouse was pretty awesome. Basically they have created this device that is suppose to simulate a wave so people can experience the thrill and joy of surfing without ever going into the ocean.
 
Joel and I each tried surfing once but decided that body boarding was more fitting for us :)


We really weren't that impressed with LegoLand but decided it would be neat if
 we had kids... so maybe someday we'll go back!!
 




 


One of the most exciting things on the whole trip was
seeing "the beast" again! Joel sold his old Ford truck from
 high school before we moved to AZ so we were both so
surprised to see him again and at In-N-Out of all places!
