I lived in San Diego 38 years.  The locals often say "don't trust anyone that doesn't like Mexican food".  There's some truth to that statement.  Good Mexican really is irresistible.

I like nearly every Mexican dish.  But my favorite is fish tacos.  Baja style (beer-battered) or Sonoran grilled.  Both are excellent.  And in the case of grilled fish, quite healthy.  Add black beans and rice for sides.  Bahia Don Bravo in La Jolla and Brigantine Del Mar are top spots.

San Diego has some of the best Mexican food outside of Mexico.
In Florida you get a lot of Cuban and Puerto Rican.
Cafe con leche is to die for Ithinkthe Cubansuse ctack in it. It caused me to gain 10 lbs or half a stone. I hope my understanding is correct.

It's harder to love and create than hate and destroy. Love and creation takes more energy. Where hate and destruction can be done with a single word that can haunt you for a life time.

San Diego is very close to Mexico.  I wish their beaches were less polluted, a lot because of waste down a river coming from Mexico.
Always stay cheerful, be polite, kind, and understanding. Accepting yourself as the woman you are is very liberating.  Never underestimate the appreciation and respect of authenticity.  Help connect a person to someone that may be able to help that person.  Be brave, be strong.  A TRUE friend is a treasure.  Relationships are very important, people are important, and the sooner we all realize that the better off the world will be.  Try a little kindness.  Be generous with your time, energy, wisdom, and resources.   Inconvenience yourself to help someone.   I am a brown eyed, brown haired woman.

Coronado Beach is nice. 

The zoo is nice.

The Tijuana River estuary, nearby Imperial Beach, and Coronado are all unsafe to swim in.  Even the beach sand isn't safe in IB.  Further north, it's better.  Plenty of surfers and beach goers in the beach communities north of downtown SD.

I think she meant 'sea horses'.  Coronado Beach is lovely.  But the water is off-limits because of contamination.  The zoo is always a worthwhile visit.  One of the best in the world.

La Jolla is a nice area of San Diego. 

Pricey.

There is something called "walking tacos."  Ever had one?
