    Go San Diego Cards?

    Hi there. We bought these for our family when we were in the U.S. last Xmas. We got the 3 day ones (we only had 3 nights in San Diego) and had a crazy busy time taking in Legoland, Seaworld, USS midway and San Diego zoo. We felt it was really worth it and it also made us really organised in...
