We know many of you are flying a long way for one Sunday afternoon, and we'd be happy if you turned it into a real trip. Vista sits in North County San Diego, twenty minutes from the ocean and forty minutes north of the city. Late November is the best time of year here: warm sun, cool nights, no summer crowds.Rather than list everything, here are the twelve places we actually send people, roughly in order of how far you'll drive. We've mentioned how much walking each one involves, since we know that matters to some of you.A note on timing: the sun sets around 4:45, so save outdoor plans for the morning. Thanksgiving is that Thursday, so book restaurants and cars early if you're staying on.
