The flower fields are definetely one of the most beautiful sites in San Diego. I drive past them to work every day and love watching them bloom. Many of the fields still haven't bloomed yet but there are a couple that already look amazing. If you are from out of town, you can stay at the resort right on top of the fields The Grand Pacific Palisades and if you book at ResorTime.com (click my name to go directly to their page) you don't need a timeshare tour. Enjoy your trip to San Diego!
