Great video Chris. I grew up in San Diego and I didn’t even know half of what Balboa Park had to offer until seeing your video. My sister was impressed with the informative delivery & video production quality as well. 👍

Beautiful park but museums are very over-priced for their content. Admission $16-20 and the museums are very small. $5 would be more reasonable. You also need to know that not all museums are open every day.
