Travel & Accommodations

This is a tiny Taco Bell right next to a full sized Taco Bell. The minature serves as a tribute to the very first Taco Bell in San Diego as the original building was torn down and replaced with a more modern version. This makes the list because Richard has been trying to convice Natashia to go to Vegas and get married at a Taco Bell. Apparantly, Taco Bell would pay for the wedding if we did this. Richard also says the wedding would be a lot less stress and a lot cheaper to do this. Natashia then likes to then remind Richard that he laughed at her for wanting to have party platter tacos for the wedding as "we can do better than tacos."

Mini Taco Bell

If you want touristy things to do, this is a great start! Larger than New York’s Central Park and Chicago’s Millennium Park combined, San Diego’s&nbsp;<a href="https://www.balboapark.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Balboa Park</a>&nbsp;comprises 1,200 acres of urban green space with 16 museums, 65 miles of trails, and of course, the internationally renowned&nbsp;<a href="https://zoo.sandiegozoo.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">San Diego Zoo</a>. Dating back to the early 19th century, Balboa is one of the oldest public parks in the nation. Luckily for visitors, much of the early architecture has been impeccably preserved, including the iconic&nbsp;<a href="https://www.museumofman.org/exhibits/california-tower/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">California Tower</a>. The ornate structure, which was constructed in celebration of the Panama Canal, reopened in 2016, allowing anyone to climb to the top of its 125 steps and enjoy one of the best views in town. With a mix of native plants and carefully cultivated gardens, Balboa Park is a horticultural marvel. The&nbsp;<a href="https://www.balboapark.org/gardens/rose-garden" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Inez Grant Parker Memorial Rose Garden</a>&nbsp;alone has more than 130 varieties of roses. The&nbsp;<a href="https://www.niwa.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Japanese Friendship Garden</a>&nbsp;offers stark elegance and a lovely koi pond, while&nbsp;<a href="https://www.balboapark.org/gardens/palm-canyon" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Palm Canyon</a>&nbsp;shades visitors in a dense, jungle-like atmosphere created by more than 450 trees. Museums abound—local favorites include the<a href="https://www.museumofman.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">&nbsp;San Diego Museum of Man</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.sdmart.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">San Diego Museum of Art</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.sdnhm.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">San Diego Natural History Museum</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.rhfleet.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Fleet Science Center</a>, and the&nbsp;<a href="https://sandiegoairandspace.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">San Diego Air &amp; Space Museum</a>. Culture reigns supreme too:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.theoldglobe.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Old Globe Theatre</a>&nbsp;hosts its famed Shakespeare Festival&nbsp;each summer. Outdoor film screenings, plays, and concerts are hosted in the park year-round. All this, plus one of the world’s finest zoos. Over 3,700 animals from 660 species are showcased at the&nbsp;<a href="https://zoo.sandiegozoo.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">San Diego Zoo</a>. Don’t miss the koala bears, or the hugely popular orangutans. Check the Balboa Park&nbsp;<a href="https://www.balboapark.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">website</a>&nbsp;for special events, and for ticketing deals bundling zoo and museum visits.

Balboa Park

A 14 acre waterfront shopping, dining and entertainment complex recreating a harbor side setting of a century ago. Opened in 1980 it includes 54 one of a kind shops, 13 casual dining eateries, 4 fine dining waterfront restaurants, and is located in close proximity to local hotels.&nbsp; This is about 4 miles from the venue and a beautiful place to people watch, shop and enjoy delicious eats!

Seaport Village

If you are looking to continue the party after the wedding or enjoy fantastic drinks with great views, this is the place to be. This area is often filled with tourists and is very eclectic in the people you may meet. The Gaslamp Quarter has successfully transformed into a premier shopping, dining, and entertainment neighborhood. With over 200 restaurants, bars, nightclubs and lounges, boutiques, art galleries, and shops to peruse, the Gaslamp Quarter has established itself both as the playground of hip, eclectic San Diegans and as an elite urban destination. There are a few rooftop bars and restaurants here, a vibrant night life and not far from the venue or hotels.

Gaslamp Quarter

The&nbsp;<a href="https://www.littleitalysd.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Little Italy</a>&nbsp;neighborhood just north of downtown&nbsp;<a href="https://www.visitcalifornia.com/places-to-visit/san-diego/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">San Diego</a>&nbsp;is not your typical stretch of red-checkered-tablecloth eateries. Not only does the neighborhood boast of being the largest “Little Italy” in the United States—spanning 48 square blocks—but its cultural offerings extend well beyond its Italian heritage. There are a ton of amazing tiny restaurants here along with small mom amd pop shops. Key an eye out for Bonjour Patisserie on Cedar street!

Little Italy San Diego

Liberty Public Market is great for all the food you can eat. It is located in Liberty Station and reminds me a bit of Pike Place with having small individual stalls but there is not nearly as many shopping stalls.

Liberty Public Market

Harbor Island Park grants visitors spectacular views of the city skyline, Coronado Bay Bridge and all the activities happening on our dynamic waterfront. In addition to pristine views, Harbor Island Park features a shoreline path for walkers and joggers and a route for bikers. The Hilton and Sheraton hotels are right by this park which is also right next to the venue. This park is located between Tom Ham's Lighthouse and the Hilton.

Harbor Island Park

This bistro came highly reccommended for a close by super casual option. It is a little funky and on Shelter Island, their menu looks fantastic. They have a disclaimer on their menu:All food may have been prepared in the presences of Pork, Beef, Shrimp, Egg, Chicken, Soy, Nuts, Beer, Wine, Gluten, Rocks, Twigs, Rock &amp; Roll, 5G, Unicorns or small troublesome Children.If you have issues with any of these ingredients, think twice before risking your life for a beer &amp; sausage.You have been warned. They had to make the list after that disclaimer!
