First Chinese Express

The Julian Grape Stomp Festa is a great way to spend a Saturday and this year’s is shaping up to be one of our best. With ten local wineries offering sips to sample, a wide variety of food and shopping opportunities, great Italian music provided by Roman Holiday, Bocce Ball Court, a little extemporaneous dancing here and there, this will be a party to remember!

The Cabrillo National Monument majestically stands in San Diego Bay. It was named after the Portuguese explorer Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo who landed on this site in 1542. The monument is part of a complex that includes a museum that tells the tale of Cabrillo's explorations as well as those of other early explorers.

If you and your date want to dress up for something a little different, make plans to take your seat among many like-minded music fans and enjoy an evening at the San Diego Symphony. There are several performances on the schedule throughout the year, so there's always something that you can plan ahead to see. Shows that feature current Tony winners, the music of Burt Bacharach and several pops concerts are just a few highlights of what you'll find on the itinerary, so make sure you get your tickets early to not miss a note of any of these stellar presentations.
