On April 25, 2012, we decided to spend a few days down in San Diego to celebrate our 41st wedding aniversary. We stayed here at a membership park. I rate this park M***. Our assigned site was level and equipped with 30 amp service and full hook-ups including water & sewer. I was lucky to have an adaptor connected to our sewer which allowed us to use standard sewer connections. This campground has closed off all the larger standard sewer connections and replaced them with smaller ones. I feel they do this to discourage campers from using their washing machines in their rigs, which would use more electricity and water. This way they can sell their laundry facilities on their premises for additional profit.
We basically used this park as a base camp to visit San Diego. We took two separate day trips from this park; one to San Diego, and the other to Julian. On the San Diego trip, we found a great doggy beach where dogs can run along the beach and frolic in the water. Unfortunately, Buddy was back at the Motorhome for this trip, but we will bring him here on another trip. We then visited Carrillo State Park and observed an interesting movie on gray wales. We then ended up at the Melting Pot in La Jolla, Ca. to enjoy a unique & delicious meal, courtesy of Keith & Lori, our son & daughter-in-law. We were dining for three hours and I think I put on 3 pounds.
The next day was raining on and off so we took Buddy for a ride to Julian. Julian is a quaint little town that is very busy during apple season with fresh apple pies and fresh squeezed apple cider. It consists of just 2 blocks of shops and restaurants. We passed on stopping in town this trip and elected to tour another membership campground in the area. Buddy enjoyed walking around the campground, but the jury is out if we will ever go camping there.
