Surprised Lonely Planet couldn't find somebody with a little more credibility and a little less sass to represent this great city. I love the way he makes his snide comments about the military (insert sarcasm).

Really? Have you been to San Ysidro or Chula Vista? This guy just talks about downtown SD and up. And even then he only talks about the most touristy of places to visit. What about Hillcrest or North Park? I can assure you that I frequent those places more than Mission Beach or Gaslamp Quarters.

MAN I MISS SAN DIEGO!

[clevermonkey64]

This guy doesn't even know the first thing about San Diego. If he did visit the city he would've had a lot better film footage show the REAL San Diego, other then the lame stuff he got from the visitor's center. What's with showing the beaches at winter time?

[jinkies82]

I love this!

History recalls how great the fall can be

While everybody is sleeping the boats put out to sea

Borne on the wings of time

It seemed the answers were so easy to find

Too late, the prophets [profits] cry

The island is sinking let us take to the sky

Actually it is and always has been "Tijuana." The confusion began when Sr Santiago Arguello received title to land in the Tijuana Valley. He named his cattle ranch "Rancho Tia Juana," a play on the name of the valley. A small village was also developed in the Tijuana Valley. In 1889, he heirs of Sr Arguello signed over the land to the Mexican government and the town of Tijuana was founded. In 1919, U.S. Prohibition put Tijuana on the map when Americans would cross the border to get a drink.
