We have a short/weird trip coming up. We have two days in San Diego (planning the zoo) then a drive to Phoenix via El Centro.

Would love suggestions on kid friendly (young kids - 2, 4 and 4) things for day 2. I'll be single parenting that day.

Then anything from San Diego to Phoenix.

I'm a big fan of hole in the wall places and hidden gems.

Balboa Park is a nice area to let the kids run around. La Jolla cove in La Jolla and you can check out the seals

Back when things were less complicated it was fun to make the run to Mexicali from Tijuana via Tecate with a stop at the Tecate Brewery beer garden. I wouldn't do it nowadays but I did it a couple times back in the early 90's.

You'll drive right pass the Yuma Territorial Prison State Historic Park. Made that drive once and we ran short on time so we couldn't stop. We also went to the USS Midway which might be fun for the kids with all the aircraft on board. Or maybe visit Coronado Island. Nice beach and the aircraft flying up and down the coast was pretty neat.

If you're coming this weekend it's comic con weekend. Sure there will be plenty of people watching opportunities downtown if so.

I'd think at those ages - the harbor would be fascinating, especially if boys.

+1 on La Jolla and the seals. There's a Sea World there, but seeing the seals was better.
