Pre-trip Prep: The Itinerary

So... what do I plan to do for six days, you may wonder?

The answer to that is...whatever the hell I want..lol.

That said, I do have a few things planned. I don't like to cram my trips with too much just because I love hanging out and people watching, and there's usually a few attractions in Vegas I almost always end up visiting anyway.

Wednesday:
  • Fly out of JFK at 8am.
  • Arrive in Vegas at 11am local time more or less.
  • Pick up rental car.
  • Check in time at my first hotel (The El Cortez) is at 2 pm, so I'll usually grab lunch at In-n-Out Burger. I like the one by UNLV.
  • Head to the El Cortez and get checked in.
  • Head to Target to grab whatever I need.
  • Might check out someplace Downtown for dinner...I was thinking maybe going to The Griffin for Happy Hour. The good thing is that there are plenty of choices in Fremont East and Fremont Street Experience.
Thursday:
  • Wake up at 8am.
  • Drive to San Diego - estimated arrival by noon
  • Lunch at Urban Mo's in Hillcrest, since check-in at my second hotel isn't until 3pm. My friend also recommended a taco place in  the same neighborhood, so I'm open to either one.
  • Check into hotel.
  • Explore Downtown San Diego and Gaslamp District
  • Dinner at a place TBD.
  • Check out the sunset in Mission Beach.
Friday:
  • Go on Hornblower Harbor Cruise at 11am, take photos.
  • Lunch in Old Town
  •
