Del Mar Racing
2260 Jimmy Durante BlvdThe horsetrack, nothing more need be said. Opening day mid-July.
Get up and close to the animals. The park houses a large array of wild and endangered animals including species from the continents of Africa, Asia, Europe, North and South America, and Australia. The park is in a semi-arid environment, and one of its most notable features is the Africa Tram which explores the expansive African exhibits. These free-range enclosures house such animals as antelopes, giraffes, buffalo, cranes, and rhinoceros. The park is also noted for its California condor breeding program, the most successful such program in the United States.

Sightseeing
Old Town
The beginning of San Diego
Amazing small town in the mountains. Try the gold mine tour, I did, a lot of fun and interesting to see and learn about the history and techniques. It's out there but still fun. Mom's pie is the best too!

Parks & Nature
Amazing hike and views. We like to hike up first and then walk one of the many trails. The best is to go all the way up until you just about get to the famous Torrey Pines Golf Course and then take the trail down to the beach and finish with the beach walk back to start.
