Things To Do In San Diego: Thursday, June 4-Sunday, June 7, 2015

This has been such a crazy week that I just realized I took down the listings earlier and never reposted as I sit in a playground in San Carlos. I missed both Spoon shows this week, as well as Sufjan, because I worked at both Mother Mother on Monday and Courtney Barnett on Tuesday. Yesterday we went to Aquatica and despite all the anti-Sea World sentiment so prevalent these days, I have to say it was the most fun I've had in ages. It is definitely an activity that is as fun for adults as it is for kids, so the $42 Spash Passes and the $69 Costco Season Pass w/Parking was already definitely worth it. After the waterpark, I worked at the Active Child show then loved seeing Ron Sexsmith at the Casbah. Tonight I get to go to a media menu tasting at Vessel at the Kona Kai. (#summeratVessel) Can't wait. Friday through Sunday listings are after the jump. Don't forget the SD Fair kicks off tomorrow, so allow for extra traffic up north.
