So for Balboa park stuff: how easy is it to get there during the con? I've had to do Ubers/Lyfts/Taxis to do HopCon, which has been worth it. Never done anything at Balboa before and not sure how feasible it is. Last time I went there I was with someone who lived in San Diego so I had the luxury of just being driven there.
Super easy. Balboa Park is just right up 6th Ave a few blocks from the Gaslamp. You could even walk if you really felt like it, but a Lyft would be cheap and easy. And if you check the bus routes, I'm sure it's a single short bus ride as well.
I wouldn't say Balboa Park is walking distance. It's up Park Blvd (between 11th & 13th, not 6th), and it's a good 2.5-3 miles to where any events would be taking place (I know last year there was something at the Fleet Science Center, not sure if anything is going on this year).There are a couple buses that pick up on Broadway that will go straight to the Park. Last year we took an Uber from Little Italy and it was like 6 dollars.
Balboa Park is really big and yes, it is right up 6th Ave. The El Prado bridge off of 6th Avenue is the traditional/iconic entrance to the park. There are several ways to enter, but I'd recommend this way as it takes you right into the heart of the park and the Plaza de Panama. I'm not trying to argue here, but I'm a San Diegan and I know my park.

Thanks for the link!Have any of you been to the Digital LA party? Worth going? I don't have a Saturday badge so that would give us something to do.

NOOOOOO... gonna need a new Saturday night offsite event to go to.
Kind of a bummer, but this was the year that I decided not to buy tickets for this. Wanted to try something new. :-\
