"Laid back San Diego" a San Diego Travel Page by acemj

I lived in San Diego during my high school years and absolutely loved the place. What's not to love? The average temperature throughout the year is 70 degrees. There's a really old joke that the easiest job in the world is to be a weather forecaster in San Diego. In the winter, you can pretty much count on 60-65 degrees and sunny and in the summer it's almost always between 70-80 degrees. Technically, San Diego is a desert, so the evenings are cool, but it's not too hot because the temperature is regulated by its coastal position. Ahh, perfection.

San Diego is no longer a best kept secret. I've been out there a few times in the past five years and each time it seems to grow. Despite the slightly more crowded streets and highways, it's still an incredible city.

San Diego County is physically the biggest county in the country, so when I refer to San Diego, I'm talking about a huge area of land. It stretches (in my mind) from Mexico, half-way up to Los Angeles.

It's so hard for me to decide on my favorite US city, but San Diego, I must confess, is always the first to come to mind.
