This is more of a place to hang out with your girlfriends probably. My hubby doesn't like walking around shops so he isn't too thrilled to go here. Unless you have kids who don't mind shopping, they might get bored. The walk along the ocean is beautiful and the shops are very cute! There are some really good restaurants and beautiful places to take family photos!

I took my son for the first time at 6 months...he couldn't stop staring at everything!! Even at that age he was captivated by the fish tanks! There are so many interactive learning areas for both the kids and the adults. I learned a lot my self. I believe there is a touch tank outside though we didn't go since it was raining the day we went. It's definitely not the Long Beach Aquarium, but it is a wonderful little few hour trip if you need to get out of the house and learn something new.

This was the first hotel we stayed in with our baby. WE LOVED IT!! We plan on staying in these hotels from here on out. The accommodations were amazing...full kitchen with oven, stove, full sized refridge, microwave, dishwasher. The bedroom closes off, perfect for naps!! The bathroom was very spacious and there was enough room in the bedroom for our pack n play. It also had an awesome continental breakfast and all day coffee. AND it is right next door to a Trader Joes, as in 100 feet away!!

It's a fun place to walk around and "window shop." There are a bunch of cute stores to shop in with unusual trinkets. We mostly go for the food! It is truly amazing Mexican food! We've gone with our baby and enjoy sitting out on the patio/terrace. There is usually live music playing in the evenings so we will head over there and listen for a while. It's a fun place to visit, especially if you like to shop!

The museums are awesome! On Tuesdays select ones are open for free! Those are fun! The old buildings and architecture are beautiful!! My hubby took a lot of pictures there for his photography class. There are also some fun playgrounds and the zoo!! If we lived closer, we would hang out there more!
