San Diego Spring Break Road Trip - (part 1 of 3) - Sweet Shoppe Mom

One of my favorite road trip destinations is San Diego. From Arizona its about a 5-6 hour drive. My son was on spring break last week so we decided to escape to the coast for a few days. Booked a hotel on priceline.com and got a great deal for Morgan Run Club and Resort in Rancho Santa Fe.

We arrived in the evening so our first stop was one of my favorite restaurants The Fish Market in Del Mar. Delicious food and a glass of wine and this was one very happy mom. The Fish Market is very allergy friendly, too and the waitress even brought me some fruit sorbet to try that was amazing. My son’s favorite right now is fried fish with malt vinegar so he was happy too.

In the morning we headed to the La Jolla Shores for a little beach time before heading to Sea World. Weather was prefect as always.

My son loves all animals and Sea World gives you an amazing opportunity to experience ocean animals up close. Its been a few years since I’ve been at the park so it was exciting to see all the new shows and exhibits.

This trip was partly a belated birthday celebration for my son and one thing he asked for was cake – so I surprised him by taking him to Extraordinary Desserts and told him he could pick out what ever he wanted. It took him a long time to make a decision with so many choices. He was one happy kid!
