Guest guest Posted June 21, 2012 Report Share Posted June 21, 2012 Dear Amulya,We do visit SanDiego often. Yes we have seen those places. Stayed at the Wyndham resort on Oceanside pier courtesy Timeshare.How do you know this part of the world so well?It is a 5 hr drive from Paradise Valley (home). Ashish'83 > Looks like you have really been spreading yourself around San Diego. I had forgoten about Del Mar...good for surfing if you're into that sort of thing. Where next?...I suppose you've already done the rounds of zoo, seaworld, legoland and wildlife park for the kids. > > Amulya > > PS.
