Things To Do In San Diego: June 29-July 1, 2012

I realize that my posts this week have just been listings but some of my videos and photos are taking longer to get to than planned and then this terrible cold knocked me on my ass for a couple days. Hopefully the worst of that is over because I've got way too much to do this weekend to be laying in bed. Hopefully you find some things that tickle your fancy, too. Weekend archives are after the jump.
