Day 2At sea.A full day at sea aboard Ruby Princess. Sailing from San Francisco toward San Diego.
San Diego docks downtown at the Embarcadero, so the USS Midway, the Gaslamp Quarter and the waterfront are all on foot. Balboa Park and the zoo are a short ride and need most of a day between them.

Enjoy a selected park section and the waterfront setting.
USS Midway Museum
Choose available hangar, flight-deck or other exhibits suited to your visit.
Maritime Museum of San Diego

Portside paths, science exhibits, a pedestrian plaza.
Ensenada is Baja's cruise port, ninety minutes south of the border, and the town is walkable from the pier. La Bufadora, a marine blowhole down the coast, is the standard excursion; the Valle de Guadalupe wine country inland is the better one if the call is long.
