I would recommend a stroll around Mission Bay, followed by a trip into downtown La Jolla....very cool shops, and excellent eating, Also the best Beaches in the county (Blacks Beach it there, but you need to walk down the Cliffs from the hang glider launch). Driving over the Coronado Bay Bridge to get to the Hotel Del, is nice and Silver Strand State Beach is very cool. You might also head out towards Torry Pines and get the view from the Golf Course there...its impressive.
Bit of a trip but....up the coast is the Ferry to Catalina Island, which is absolutely beautiful if you have the time. The Zoo in San Diego is amazing, and truthfully the Animals are secondary to the enclosures. Very few Cages at all, as they have been mostly replaced with carefully created replicas of the creatures habitat. The Wild Animal park is OK....but generally not worth the long drive to get there.
Hard to find, but a cool drive , is the Midget housing on Mt. Soleded. There is an entire block of tiny houses made for people of small stature up there.....blows your mind when you see them, and the view from the top of Mt. Soledad is excellent.
Anyway....Have fun.
