San Diego is my favorite city in the entire country because it’s where I grew up! We live on the East Coast now, but I left my heart in San Diego! One of the amazing things about San Diego is the consistently mild weather (for the most part) and that you can be in the beach from anywhere in the county in just a few minutes!

One of the best family attractions in San Diego, HANDS DOWN is LEGOLAND California!

LEGOLAND California is not only completely awesome for the kids, but we adults enjoy it as well! If you grew up playing with Legos, you can imagine how awesome it must be to visit LEGOLAND California!

Some of the attractions at LEGOLAND California include:
Land of Adventure, set in 1920s Egypt, comprised of four new attractions including our first-ever dark ride, Lost Kingdom Adventure. Based in ancient temple ruins, Lost Kingdom Adventure puts you inside a desert jeep and takes you on a journey to recover stolen treasure by blasting targets with laser guns along the way.

Imagination Zone, home to many of our coolest rides and attractions like Bionicle Blaster and AQUAZONE Wave Racers.Giraffes as tall as 18 feet peek through the roof, nibble on an ice cream cone, curiously bend to the ground, and welcome guests into the play area.

And Pirate Shores includes all-new water attractions and and high-seas adventures that will thrill buccaneers of all ages!

And MY favorite thing in LEGOLAND, Mini Land! You can see below, this model of Excalibur in Las Vegas, COMPLETELY made of Legos!

BUT that’s not all! Next to LEGOLAND California is the SEA LIFE US Aquarium!

SEA LIFE Aquarium has a new exhibit called Sharks Revealed – a new interactive exhibit designed to introduce children to these mysterious and misunderstood creatures of the deep. Fun, hands-on displays give an up-close and personal look at the life cycle and evolution of sharks. Discover how sharks eat, breathe and sleep while gaining an understanding of these great creatures

Some of the other awesome things you can see at SEA LIFE Aquarium are:

Rock Pool Feeding, Harbor Feeding, Octopus Feeding, Ray Feeding, Atlantis Feeding, Shark Pup Feeding, Seahorse Feeding, Shallows Feeding, Southern California Tide Pool and Discovery Zone Touch Pool.

The Carlsbad Inn Beach Resort is situated in Carlsbad, CA, just minutes from LEGOLAND California.  Not only are you in very close proximity to LEGOLAND California when you stay there, but you’re also just steps…literally steps from the beach!

The Carlsbad Inn Beach Resort overlooks the beautiful, blue Pacific and is located within the quaint Carlsbad Village-By-the-Sea. This is truly a destination resort! Park your car at the resort and comfortably walk to many boutiques, antique shops, more than 25 delightful restaurants and much more. For more fun in Carlsbad there are five miles of clean, uncrowded beaches for swimming, jogging, fishing, surfing and sunbathing.

Spacious rooms, many with glorious ocean views, will welcome you to Carlsbad Inn Beach Resort. We offer 62 beautifully appointed rooms, many with kitchenettes, some with fireplaces and private spas.

Most rooms have balconies, and several kitchenette rooms connect to a room with two queen-sized beds. If you are traveling with your family, this duo of rooms is a great option.
