During spring break, I stayed in Escondido for a new adventure. Escondido is on the north side of San Diego and it is about 2 hours driving from LAX.
First I had to go to visit the world famous "San Diego Zoo Safari Park".

There are 5 dining facilities in the park. I talked with a volunteer woman (there are volunteer people everywhere and they will help with your park plans) for advice and she recommend to me "Mombasa Island Cooker" for lunch.
"Mombasa Island Cooker" is located in Nairobi Village. They serve up Italian and Asian specialities as well as gourmet burgers and salads.
I chose to have a "Thai chicken wrap" and a beer. It was one of the happiest moments at the park.
What I like about RCI resorts is that they are always very gorgeous and ready with everything you need.
At the Welk, I stayed in room No.3431 which is a one bedroom with a nice full kitchen.

Every Monday from 3pm to dusk, there is a farmer's market inside of Welk resorts.
The food choice was very international such as Mediterranean, Indian, Mexican, Japanese and West African. I tried Tamale (Mexican) and Hummus (Mediterranean). Both dishes were great and I had a nice Monday evening listening to live accordion music.

For the beer drinker, "Stone brewery" is the place to be in Escondido.
This is a huge brewery and bistro, you can enjoy a brewery tour or walking around in the beautiful garden with your family and friends.
