Emily Burrough blogged about a good topic today on iego.planjam.com.
Read this summary….
Even if you don’t have sons with more Legos than Toys R Us like I do, you and your family will enjoy yourselves at Legoland. From the exciting Dragon roller coaster to the extremely mellow Fairy Tale Brook, Legoland is a fun outing for toddlers to tweens, and even for adults.
I started taking my oldest son to Legoland monthly around his 2nd birthday and was pleasantly surprised at how much there is for a little kid to do there. When my kids were toddlers, their favorite rides were the helicopters, the airplanes, the Safari Jeeps, and the Duplo Town train. As they got a little braver and taller, their new favorites were the Jr. Driving Course and the Royal Joust. Around age 5, they started riding the Dragon Coaster, Wave Racers, Bionicle Blaster (think Disneyland’s tea cup ride, only made out of Lego Bionicle pieces) and the Knight’s Tournament.

I found an interesting post today on iego.planjam.com.

If you're in San Diego and looking for an inexpensive date spot that won’t make you look like a miser, head on over to the lounge in The Brigantine during their famous happy hours (twice daily on the weekends!). The restaurant side of the Brig can be pretty pricey, but the bar is where it’s at for cheap eats and great atmosphere.
For just a couple of bucks, you and your date can fill up on delectable Brig Original fish tacos with cheese (normally $7, but only $2.25 each during happy hour). Wash those tacos down with either a huge Brig Brew (another happy hour special) or a house margarita (only $3.50 during happy hour). The servers are consistently friendly and prompt and the food is delicious. Another fave of mine is the Coctel del Mar, a tomato-based shrimp, crab, and avocado ceviche that is to die for.

I saw a good post this morning.
There is one airport in San Diego that has people lined up around the corner, eager to enter - and they won’t make you take off your shoes or hassle you with a hostile pat-down. Airport Lounge, nestled along India Street in north Little Italy, is anything but unpleasant…
