Where in Escondido is Bianka now?  Well usually I’m lost as I am directionally challenged.  But when I pass the Escondido Center for Performing Arts I smile and know that I’m either going the right way or not.

This leads me to comment further on the Escondido Center for Performing Arts.  Did you know that their beautiful honey colored floors is simply wax over cement?  Yep, even I didn’t know cement could look so good; sometimes I imagine Fred Astair and Ginger Rogers dancing on it, although I would have to polish all of it every day.  The Center boasts of not only booking American music legends but also international music legends.

For the car aficionados every Friday night from April through September, the Downtown Business Association hosts the popular “Cruisin’ Grand,” where the public can show and view hot rods and historic cars. A different car club and/or featured attraction (i.e. antique fire trucks, nitro night, midget and sprint cars) is highlighted each week. Cruisin’ Grand also features a DJ, hula hoop contests for the kids, and 7 trophies each night.

Also, there are many art galleries on Grand; a branch of the Mingei Museum has recently opened there. This museum displays handcrafts from around the world.  The Escondido Children’s Museum and the Escondido History Center, two independent non-profit museums, are located in
Grape Day Park. The Children’s Museum features hands-on exhibits and programs for children up to 10 years of age, with an authentically regional perspective on natural and social science. The History Center features the city’s original Santa Fe Depot, first library, Victorian house, barn, and blacksmith shop. The Pioneer Room of Escondido Public Library (located in the Mathes Center building next to the Main Library) has photographs, maps, oral histories, genealogical collections, directories and yearbooks documenting Escondido’s history.

Ok, and now for my all time favorite, the San Diego Wild Animal Park, sister park of the San Diego Zoo. The Wild Animal Park shows world animals in open habitat, where they can roam, graze, and fly. Sometimes you can get a two for one deal!!
