Coronado Trips

Ok, so i'm doing another travel blog, this time concentrating on my second trip to the states with the family, this time to the east coast (plus san diego) Disclaimer: Just like last time, food is a key focus (i'm not even a food critic, i …

The punchline: We had dinner at Chili's. The joke: What "Mexican" restaurant did you choose for your first San Diego cuisine experience? Let me explain. We started our Thursday with some typical pre-transcontinental errands--an oil change, …

We've heard about the Danish town in California for a while, but never bothered looking it up. When planning this trip we finally did. The name is Solvang, and what do you know it's one of the places Jack and Miles visited in the movie "sideways …
