My room overlooked Mission Bay. I could walk out the sliding glass door, take ten steps and be on the water. Each evening, I watched fireworks over the bay while sitting on my patio.
I explored all the meeting space ASI will be using, all of it stunning. Receptions will be beachside. Breakfasts and lunches will be in a ballroom offering views of both sides of the bay, downtown, and the Pacific Ocean. Some seminars and workshops will be held under historic stained glass ceilings on the riverboats docked at the resort. Plus, this year there will be a dedicated networking room where you can talk to your peers in a relaxed, quiet setting.
A site visit isn't complete without exploring the area. The resort is just two blocks from Mission Beach. Restaurants line the boardwalk. I enjoyed a burger at a beachside spot. And I discovered a little gem that has the best tacos - ever!
Bring your family to the beach to enjoy boogie boarding, swimming, kayaking, and more (but remember the sunscreen - I didn't). Feeling more adventurous? Rent a bike and ride north to La Jolla cove for an afternoon of snorkeling.
I didn't get to watch a sunset. Maybe you can do it for me in April. See the ASI conference website for more details.
