La Jolla Caves

October 6, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

Along with the beaches La Jolla gives the San Diego
area, it also has some very nice caves. The caves
of La Jolla are great for tours, exploring, or
anyone wanting to see the best of La Jolla.

Carved into the sandstone cliffs of La Jolla, there
are seven caves. Most of the time, you can visit
any seven of these caves by sea kayak. Although
all but one are accessible by foot, you should be
very carefully when minus tides sweep the area.

The Sunny Jim Cave is one of the most popular and
well known caves of La Jolla. You can enter
through the Cave Store by paying a small fee. There
are 145 steep steps to get through the cave,
which is great for exploring and seeing the area.

The cave store can tell you many things about the
caves, including tours. If you plan to visit the
La Jolla area of San Diego, the caves can be a great
place to explore. Those of you who have kids coming
along for the trip, should remember to be very
careful – as the caves provide a lot of beauty –
they can also provide a lot of danger as well.

Survey on Summer holiday plans

October 5, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

According to a survey from AOL Travel and Zogby International, 57% of Americans feel they have less money to spend this year on summer vacations than they did in 2007 and are looking at ways to save on their travel costs. To save money, 33% of Americans are planning to stay with friends/family for lodging while 37% plan to drive rather than fly. Twenty percent of those surveyed are planning a vacation rental instead of a hotel this summer. These are just some of the many findings from a new interactive survey of Americans ages 18 and older that uncovers how Americans are planning to travel this summer.

“Due to the challenging economic outlook, rising fuel prices and the declining U.S. dollar abroad, money is tight for some and our survey shows that one-third of Americans are in fact changing how they travel just to save on costs” said Jim Kovarik, GM of AOL Travel. “Despite this, Americans won’t forgo their summer vacations.” [Read more…] about Survey on Summer holiday plans

The Gaslamp Quarter of San Diego contains some of
the most extensive and dramatically designed
historic buildings in the area. Constructed between
1873 and 1930, these Victorian style buildings are

The Victorian era buildings found in the Gaslamp
Quarter are home to night clubs, restaurants,
theaters, and shops. A simple stroll down 4th
and 5th avenue will put you at the heart of the
Gaslamp Quarter.

Also found in the Gaslamp Quarter is the Horton
Plaza and Horton Plaza Park. The Plaza is the
first place in the United States to feature a water
fountain containing electric lights; a true
tribute to the designer Alonzo Horton.

The Gaslamp Quarter received its name from the
gaslamps that were used in the area around the early
1900’s. During those times, gaslamps were the
main source of light for the area that is now
the vision of Modern Day San Diego.

Now days, there are more than 130 stores and shops
filling the Gaslamp Quarter. With everything from
Macy’s to Mervyns, Gaslamp Quarter has plenty for
you to see and do. In Horton Plaza, you can find
a multi screen movie theater that is sure to please
movie lovers.

For a wonderful experience, the Gaslamp Quarter of
San Diego shouldn’t be overlooked. There is a lot
you can do here, from fine dining to excellent
shops. For a family vacation, San Diego has a
little bit of something for everyone.
