• Mason Street School The school was built in 1865 and was the first public school house in san Diego. This I kind of stumbled on by chance as there are no big signs heralding its existence, and I found it because I stopped to look a a plaque ... Read review

Disadvantages: You may miss the trolley

another great review... by majeedkazi

Lovely to read... Found the same sort of experience in Dublin... The Irish tram drivers are full of interesting and very funny information regarding the whole of Dublin....The one that had me laughing for a long time after my visit was when we passed the statue of Molly Malone and the driver referred to her as ' The tart with the cart ' Thanks J.x by headcase44

Useful review by IzzyS

great job, excellent review. by gemsarchitect

I travelled to California in April of this year. It was amazing, i was skydiving for two weeks and the weekend in the middle we went to San Diego for two nights. One of the best couple of days ever!!! The beaches are beautiful, i cannot compare them to any others i've seen. The weather was great at that time of year and everyone is so friendly. If you enjoy shopping then you'll definately enjoy yourself here. The shops offer everything you can imagine and more!!! But for me to top it all off was the huge ice creams! childish i know but what can i say... its my weakness. You buy a drink of coke and its given to you in what i can only describe as a bucket... and people question why the americans are such 'large' people...

Welcome to ciao. The reason for my low rating is there is hardly any information here, if you add more I will re-read and re-rate accordingly. by tigerthecat

Advantages: World remowned Zoo

Disadvantages: Smell of the Flamingoes as you walk in - there aren't many downfalls!

This zoo i have visited many many times so far. Although i know my way around pretty well, it is not the most easy to navigate for a newcomer! The plus is that they recognise this and hand out maps as you pay for entry. This makes the task 10 times easier ... Read review
