I am from Southern California and I absolutely love the desert. The beauty of the vast, open, desolate desert, with all of it's colors and imposing mountains, is compelling to me. Interestingly, I also have a heart for my local San Diego beaches. San Diego is such a great place to live.

I wish I was able to easily travel to the east coast and southeast U.S. as it seems like there are so many places to see!

The 30-and-60-second tv commercials I've seen this year for vacations to San Diego make it seem like a really fun and interesting place to visit, all sun and beaches and sweet things to accomplish with a family. The luscious cinematography of those commercials also tempts my eye.

I fly to SD often and visit friends. There's sooo much to do in SD. I highly recommend visiting SD.

IMO San Diego offers everything for a family vacation. When our children were young it was just a couple of hours south and it offered so much for us to enjoy. Beaches, parks, historic sites, amusement/water parks, their world class zoo and wild animal park. Also there are plenty of amusements for those over 21 too.

The beautiful and fun stuff you see on the commercials is true. I wish it was an exaggeration; but, it's not. People come here to visit, fall in love with the city and then move here. Please visit and enjoy everything we have to offer, then kindly go home.

I'm so desperate for a real (non-working) vacation, I shudder to think where I'd go!

I feel this way any time the Rose Parade is televised!!!
IMO it is very fortunate that Camp Pendleton's location has stopped the non-stop sprawl that would have extended from the tip of South Orange Co. to the top of San Diego Co. At least the view is mostly uninterrupted along I5 and there is a brief opportunity for everyone to see the coast as it would have been decades ago.
