Uss Midway Museum
The main attraction, though, is the USS Midway Museum, which is aboard the Navy's longest-serving aircraft carrier (1945-91). A self-guided audio tour takes in berthing spaces, galley, sick bay and, of course, the flight deck with its restored aircraft, including an F-14 Tomcat. Allow at least two hours. Parking costs from $5.

Mission Basilica San Diego de Alcalá
Today the Mission Basilica San Diego de Alcalá is secluded in a corner of what's now called Mission Valley. It's a modest rectangle embracing a tranquil garden. Unfortunately, reaching it requires passing through the valley itself, via an unlovely freeway flanked by three massive shopping malls.
