While the San Diego Zoo resides within the confines of Balboa Park, the park itself is worthy of a visit in its own right, as it offers an impressive set of attractions. As well as featuring the zoo, Balboa Park is also home to Mingei International Museum, the Natural History Museum and Aerospace Museum as well. The park is expansive, with its lush grass and scenery perfect for laying out on a blanket or just sitting on a bench and people watching as the afternoon unfolds. If you need to take a breather, there's no better place than Balboa Park!
The San Diego Children's Choir was founded by Polly Campbell and was incorporated as a non-profit public benefit corporation in 1990. The choir is open to boys and girls ages six to eighteen from every background. The goal of the organization is to provide the youth of San Diego with the highest quality choral music education and performance experience that also fosters a love of both cultural diversity and music itself. Their various performances will put a smile on your face and a song in your mind long after the curtain has fallen.
Baseball is as American as hotdogs and apple pie, and you can get a heaping helping of the sports action as the San Diego Padres take to the field at PETCO Park for nine innings of fun.
