The Telegraph over there in the UK sends some guy named Charlie Scott to hang out and have fun in San Diego



From The Telegraph (UK):

From the sensational surf and surfers to skateboarding and boardwalk strutting, this is the city as beach beautiful: girls cruise by on Rollerblades or bicycles, mothers pull babies in go-karts, students play Frisbee and eccentric oldies do the lot. The weather is sensational all year and where Los Angeles sprawls in a hectic, hazy hubbub, San Diego cruises along the Pacific, from glorious beach communities to the harbour and downtown area. The Zoo is rightly world-renowned (its Wild Animal Park, Sea World and a wild sealion colony are also good). The museums and galleries are also top-notch.

Scott stayed at The W (W Hotel rooms range from "Wonderful" to 'Extreme Wow'. ), at The Diamond Head Inn (It encourages you to cook and make the most of the beach until the sun sinks into the Pacific.), and Tower 23 (There's no pool. The bar gets very noisy and the surfer dude service can irritate.).

It looks like if you're looking for a real party head downtown (rooftop bars unite!) and if you're looking for a deal with some surf attitude head to the beach (go beach!).

Seriously, how did this guy get his job and where can I apply. I'm going to walk into the Editors office over at The Union Tribune and say "I'd like you to pay me money to travel around having fun. Thank you." Heck, pay me to "travel" around San Diego and stay in San Diego hotels and I'll take it. Charlie Scott... you lucky, lucky bastard.
