Things To Do In San Diego: August 8-11, 2013

I realized that I forgot to include CityFest in Sunday's listings, so I'm updating these for your perusal. For anyone wondering, date night was awesome. We had lunch with Tim Pyles at Nate's Garden Grill, had a luxurious afternoon nap, then rode bikes to Belching Beaver, El Zarape, Small Bar, and The Void. Today was pretty awesome, too. After picking up Nova, we had lunch at West Coast BBQ & Beer in La Mesa, went swimming at the Handlery Hotel, then did part of the townie ride from Blind Lady. Now it's dinner time and then I'm off to Foals. Drowners start at 8, Foals on at 9. Thursday through Sunday archives are after the jump.
