Romance, music and a dash of history all prove to be the ingredients of the perfect romantic evening when you visit Gaslamp Quarter. Aside from being an obviously hip, lively collection of restaurants, clubs and bars that are part of the district's top-drawer nightlife, it's also a great vantage point to do some fun people-watching.

Need a good laugh to forget the stresses of your everyday routine? Then a laugh-filled evening at the National Comedy Theatre is just for you! The venue features the best in improvisational comedy and interactive entertainment, the best of all; it is all family-friendly! The troupe does a great job of keeping their antics and impressions clean but that doesn't mean that they're not uproariously funny. Another great attribute about the theater is that there is no drink minimum like most clubs, so you can enjoy a soft drink if you like so you can clearly remember all the comedy you experienced well beyond your time in the audience.

If you have never been on an aircraft carrier, the one you should set foot on should be highly memorable. Thanks to the folks at the USS Midway Museum, it will be!

Don't forget to check out the great items at the gift shop so you can take home a little piece of history.
