I went to the Del Mar Races yesterday. Were you there? If so, you may have seen me. I was in a little red strapless sundress, with a matching red hat. If you’re one of the many men (or the one woman) who sang “Lady in Red” to me as I walked by, thanks! […]

The Marriott has canceled their plan to build the West Coast’s largest hotel – with 1,929 rooms – at Ballpark Village, just east of Petco Park.
San Diego would have received an estimated $18 million a year in hotel taxes from the project, which would have more than covered the city’s $11 million annual debt […]
If you’ve never been to a Scrapbook Expo, it’s a much bigger event than you probably would imagine.

Cropping events are scrapbooking parties where people scrapbook next to each other while […]
Have you tried açai berries yet?
I was invited to a MonaVie tasting party a couple of weeks ago, and until then, I’d never heard of açai berries (and I’ve even vacationed in the Amazon Jungle!) MonaVie is a juice containing açai berries (from Brazil) and 18 other fruits; the bottles are sold through home-distributors much […]
For the next five weeks, SDSU will sponsor alcohol-free dances, movies, concerts and other student activities, while banning alcohol at fraternity and sorority parties; however, these are not the only the only step SDSU is taking to address alcohol abuse.
As you may recall, Operation Sudden Fall, which occurred last year, was SDSU’s largest drug […]

Every year local teams come together to play for the right to call themselves the king of the block. This year’s tournament is an invitational for teams from New York and Puerto Rico to attend.

It’s been busy here at the San Diego Traveler, so I haven’t gone trolling for photos on Flickr for a couple of weeks. I decided to remedy that today, and here’s what I found:
It was a great month for capturing some of San Diego’s most beautiful architecture. Of course it bears noting that three of […]
