A Perfect Day in San Diego, California

As you arrive in resplendent San Diego, take in a soothing deep breath of ocean air and instantly relax. Enjoy the beautiful, oceanic views and the quaint Victorian-style houses in the quiet neighborhood in which the Heritage Park Inn is located. Take a moment to settle in because adventure surrounds you for miles and your perfect day is just beginning.

If you haven't already, partake of the delectable gourmet breakfast offered by the innkeepers. Then, relax on the veranda and plan your day. Will you take advantage of discount tickets to visit the world-renowned San Diego Zoo? Or, would adventure take you directly to the sea for a breathtaking sight of a whale, up close and personal? The possibilities are endless and the choices are all yours. And that's just your morning.

Stop in at any one of several small and cozy cafes for lunch and then it's time to get started all over again. Will you visit the USS Midway moored in the glistening, blue waters of the San Diego Harbor? Or will you wander in and out of quaint antique shops dotting the Old Town of San Diego area?

Perhaps after all of the adventure, you are ready to return to the inn and enjoy the relaxing moments of afternoon tea punctuated with delicious finger sandwiches. After all that you've packed into one day, it may be time to take a nap on one of the inn's featherbeds and dream the rest of the afternoon away in peaceful bliss.

Then, after awakening, ravenous no doubt, make dinner plans as you watch the sun set from the Queen Anne mansion's veranda. Wander over to Café Pacifica, which features the finest fresh seafood in San Diego, for a bite to eat and dream of where the evening will take you. Gaslamp Quarter awaits with its offering of dining and entertainment. Will you wander in and out of shops? Will you stop to listen to live music? Or will you wander back to the inn so that the innkeepers might arrange a romantic Venetian gondola ride replete with wine and hors d'oeuvres? The possibilities are simply endless.

As the night winds down, you unwind in the parlor for a classic movie, before finally retiring to your room for a soothing Jacuzzi bath to end your perfect day. As you sink into the comfort of your roomy featherbed, you wonder in amazement, "How did I fit so much adventure into one day and how can I possibly repeat such a perfect day tomorrow?"
