How to spend a day at Balboa Park
How I did it: I live in Orange County, California so it really just took a commitment to take the time to drive 1.5 hours south. Balboa Park is ridiculously easy to get to with ample parking opportunities (including valet). The whole area is full of museums, gardens, restaurants, and opportunities to join the natural beauty of the Park. The Park is also home to the San Diego Zoo.
Since there are so many museums, my party chose to focus on just the Mingei International Museum which houses ever-changing eclectic exhibits from around the world with some manner of cultural or artisitic significance.
Lessons & tips: I highly recommend making the most of your day and checking out the Passport to Balboa Park which will allow you admission to any 5 of their 14 museums for $35. The Passport can be purchased online or from the Balboa Park Information Center
