Let's Start the Holiday Season with lights, sights and sounds from the Historic Balboa Park in San Diego . Let's meet at 10:30am at the Visitors Center to begin exploring together. On site will be the complimentary tram if we need to hop on and off .

Wear comfortable shoes as we walk this beautiful place , visit complimentary museums and take in some other sights. You should bring some $ for food , ect we will be stopping at the House of Pacific Relations and the House of Ukraine to enjoy Foods and Beverages from many cultures.

Some of the most popular open museums will be Timken Art Museum (10-5pm) , Museum of Photography (11-5pm), World Beat(music) Center (11-5),Contemporary Art San Diego(12-5), Childrens Crafts Activities at the Comic-con Museum(2-7pm) just for craft activities not open otherwise), Japenese Friendship Garden (3-7pm) , Minegi International Museum (5-9p.m.) and Automotive Museum (3-7pm). Santa appears 5:30-8:30pm. There are several small historic areas and trails around including the Zoro Garden , a 1915 grotto ( formerly a nudist colony turn butterfly colony), 1912 Palm Canyon- a walk along shady lush palms.
We will need to drive down as the train schedule and transit would make this only a 4 hr visit and totally unrealistic. When you sign up are you willing to drive and how many can you take.
DRIVERS NEEDED-I wanted to get this out early so you would have it and can plan accordingly. How many can you take ? See you at the Visitors Center. There are 11 Free Parking lots on site with handicap spaces plus street parking on Park Ave. Remember the tram will be operating starting at 9 am on site to move us as needed, lol.
