Vacation

[chipotle]

I'm going on an arguably needed vacation, Saturday through Wednesday, meeting my mother in San Diego. (Actually, I leave godawful early Saturday morning, and get back even godawful earlier Thursday morning and go into work!)

If anyone has any suggestions for the trip, I'm all ears. I don't know much about the area. I have vague ideas for restaurants, because, well, that's what I do, and of course I know about the San Diego Zoo. The only thing "set" is a reservation at Arterra on Saturday night, and I have an idea of going to Bali Hai for brunch on Sunday. (Bizarrely, San Diego is apparently famous for great champagne brunch places.) And, Tuesday or Wednesday, we'll probably go to Tijuana, and maybe get to a gourmet Mexican restaurant that's actually (gasp) in Mexico.

I found the surf museum (http://www.surfmuseum.org/) at Oceanside interesting, just for the oddity that such a thing existed. They do a good job of taking a bunch of material artifacts and turning them into a coherent historical story. Not sure whether it'd be more or less interesting for someone who actually knew anything about the topic....
