Wear good shoes as there is a lot of walking and steep inclines (ADA accessible shuttle available). There is also an optional zip line for those who like that sort of thing (not recommended if you are afraid of heights). Parking is not free but fairly reasonable.

The world famous San Diego Zoo, which has lots of animals and even has a couple of cute pandas. If you are not afraid of heights, then you should ride the skyfari which allows you to have a picturesque view of San Diego, Balboa park as well as the zoo.

A fun museum themed after the wonderful San Diego Comic Con! Exhitbits change periodically, so it never gets stale.

Ocean Beach is our favorite beach and there are lots of good shops and restaurants as well as hotel options. Even has a mini target nearby. Parking is free, but can be quite limited so you might want to park at a nearby pay lot.

Great burgers with big portions. Bring your appetite or share one with the people you love. There is also a jr size as well as great shakes. My fiancee loves the blue jay burger (featured on FN's Diners, Drive ins, and Dives while I like the bacon cheeseburger (only make it a double if your stomach and wallet can handle it). There is also a downtown location as well on 945 Broadway in San Diego, CA.
