Manchester Grand Hyatt San Diego

Hyatt Regency Mission Bay Spa and Marina

Hyatt Regency La Jolla at Aventine

And which of these is in downtown??

Manchester is a little south of downtown, by the Convention Center and Petco Park. Mission Bay is probably 5 miles away, La Jolla 12ish miles away.

Run the addresses you get from the Hyatt website through mapquest.

-Want UCLA more than others
Ok So its sophmore year and i'm aiming for a 3.8 gpa this year, and a 4.1-3 gpa junior year. My goal is to get 2400 on the SAT. Yes, i know thats a pretty big achievement, but personally, i think 2400 is far easier than getting a good GPA. (you have to focus on 5 subjects)
I play in varsity golf and participate in kiwanis club so any tips?

Well, knowing how to spell Berkeley or that San Diego is capitalized would help, but mainly what you need is slanted eyes.

I could have sworn I saw a day tour from Anaheim to San Diego that included the San Diego Zoo and Sea World along with transportation from hotels in the Anaheim area…Anyone know where I might have seen this tour?
Thanks for your help :)
(Carn the Socceroos!! :P )

Are you maybe thinking of the Southern California Pass? It includes both Sea World and the San Diego Zoo.

I'm not sure of a tour that would include both in one day. You wouldn't be able to see much this way.

I'm looking for cheap/fun nightlife for 18-22 year olds. we are looking for a cheap fun place to go on a saturday night in either san diego or riverside counties.

The Epicenter in the Mira Mesa community of San Diego attracts teens throughout Southern California.

The Epicenter is run by teens for teens. Concerts usually cost $7 - $10. Last year, Maroon 5 performed for free. Here is their concert schedule:
http://www.epicentre.org/concerts/

Arrive early to buy tickets since only 525 people will be let in.

The Epicenter is located less than 2 miles from freeway I-15. The largest movie theater in San Diego is located off of the same exit - Edwards Cinema Mira Mesa. It is a popular movie theater for teenagers.

Mira Mesa is 15 minutes north of downtown San Diego and a little over a half hour south of the Riverside County line. Here's a Google Map: http://is.gd/jLiB

Other places in San Diego that may be of interest are Dave and Busters http://www.daveandbusters.com/Locations/ and Boomers http://www.boomersparks.com/park/sandiego/index.html. Both are located between Mira Mesa and Downtown San Diego and offer all types of games that are popular among teenagers.

Enjoy.

So, seriously, where is a good place to park when visiting Mission Beach, Pacific Beach, and/or La Jolla? Nothing is more frustrating than being able to see the beach from your car window but not being able to get out b/c you can find a parking spot anywhere! Know what I'm sayin'?

You simply have to commit to getting there early. I know it's a drag, but if you want to enjoy your day, you have to get an early start.

Mission Beach — the parking lot near Belmont Park. Make sure you have a club on your wheel, and nothing tempting in the car. (Put a Bible on the passenger seat!) Occasional gang activity at South Mission Beach.

Pacific Beach — well, it depends where. You've got Tourmaline which is north P.B. Lots of surfers, but you have neighborhood parking.

La Jolla — the only place I take my family. And we get there NO LATER than 11 a.m. However — since we live in San Diego, we're only body surfing for a couple of hours. Parking in the neighborhood north of the La Jolla Shores parking lot is good for 2 hours, and generally you WILL find a curbside location, though you might have to walk 3 blocks.

If you want to stay longer, then you MUST get to the main parking lot by 9 a.m.

AS FOR THE OTHER BEACHES:

Keep in mind that anywhere south of La Jolla will be polluted from the Tijuana discharge which flows north. That includes the easily accessible beaches on the SIlver Strand, even Coronado.

Mission Bay is terrible. It's an unknown secret that it's polluted 9 months out of the year, but the Tourist Bureau / Chamber of Commerce keeps it quiet.

Ocean Beach has parking in the neighborhood within a few blocks. You should shoot down Newport Avenue to the parking lot on the end (left side, near the pier). You might get lucky, and if not, well, you might have spotted curbside parking near the stores which has no time limit.

If you live in San Diego, you will have a MUCH EASIER time finding beach parking once school begins in September.

I want to go to San Diego towards the end of February for a quick weekend get away. What's the weather like there this time of the year? If I go a little more south does it get any warmer?

The average high is 66 and the average low is 55. You will most likely have sunshine.

The weather is hit or miss this time of year. The worst would be daytime highs in the upper 50s and rain. However, it can easily be in the 80s and sunshine.

There is a slightly greater chance of rain farther north of San Diego in areas like Carlsbad and Oceanside, and thus slightly cooler temperatures. There is also a chance for cooler temperatures along the coastline (west of highway I-5).

Have a great trip!

RED ROPE DAILY #005 http://www.redropereviews.com
Another San Diego night club Review by Red Rope Reviews. Watch the San Diego nightlife blog and find out why Tarsadia Hotels decided to lock out Rande Gerber and his 150 employees for violence and abuse according to Tarsadia Hotels. Gerber claims the hotel chain was attempting to raise the rent on him…what do you all think? Just another story of drama for San Diego clubs and nightlife. I guess that means more business for Stingaree a few streets down in the Gaslamp district of San Diego.
