Sightseeing
Balboa park is huge. From my place you can walk there via a secret bridge that nobody ever uses because I don't think they know it's there! If you walk from my place headed towards broadway, walk on 16th street past city college. You will walk up a hill into what looks like student parking lots. In the parking lot if you look to the left you will see the football field for San Diego High School. Keep walking past that and you will see a caged in bridge which crosses over the 5 freeway. At the end of the bridge is Balboa Park! Explore away! You can reach the zoo just keep walking. There's so much free views at Balboa Park that I think everyone would enjoy this adventure. My dog does
