San Diego was named after Saint Didacus (Diego de Alcalá in Spanish). It is the second largest city in California, the ninth largest city in the United States and located along the Pacific Ocean on the west coast of the United States. I had the
chance to visit the city in Y2006. I stayed with my friend Celine and her cool hubby Rich. Originally planned to go to Mexico via SD however was discouraged and that turned out a blessing since two days to explore the SD was not even enough.
