First by land and now by sea, the second stop of your San Diego 3-for-1 pass will bring you to Sea World, where you will be transported to the Arctic, and even mythical Atlanits. But before you embark on your voyage, be sure to stop for a hearty breakfast at Honey's Bistro and Bakery, where they serve breakfast all day as well as a wide varriety of sandwiches. After this head for a truly Sea World that will immerse your family in all the wonders of the sea, watch dolphins soar in the skys as well as sharks prowl the ocean floors. After you long voyage to the Arctic, im sure you have worked up quite the appetite, so if that is the case then maybe you should order the 1 pound porterhouse and Moose McGillycuddy's. If you are not that hungry they will surely have something you want.

There is nothing to start off your day better than a great breakfast and if it is good for you too even better. The Potato Shack Cafe is a great establishement that serves food for the health conscious, just so you know they do only accept cash. From here, the third stop of you San Diego Pass, the Wild Animal Park, during the course of your visit you will visit Africa, Asia, and Australia just to name a few. This park boasts 3,500 animals of 260 different species. There are many gift shops and photo opportunities to forever remember this visit. If you have worked up as voracious an appetite as the African lions or as small of one as a leaf cutter ant, Pat and Oscar's can fill you up. They have a great causal restaurant that serves great portions. If you have any room left after dinner, which I suggest you make, head to Moontime Creamery, and enjoy the great selection of ice creams and mix-in's. Be warned, the line outside should serve as testament to how good it is.
