FUN THINGS TO DO IN NOVEMBER IN SAN DIEGO!
San Diego is a wonderful place to live regardless of what season it is. All four seasons provide sunny skies and beautiful views for everyone to enjoy. However, there is more to love about this place than just the fabulous weather. San Diego is a thriving metropolis of over one million in population and located in beautiful south west California. Fun fact: San Diego is the most southwestern city in the United States, located around 120 miles south of Los Angeles and adjacent to the Mexican border. The city is rich in culture, perfect for scenic photography, and offers plenty of exciting activities for families, couples, and single travelers.
