    Vinaka was my daily visit from like 2004 to 2009. I'm not too far from it now, but so much of the area has changed so much. It's a little less my vibe now than it used to be, but it does seem like it's become a better tourist spot than it ever was. Windmill Food Hall is one of the best things they added to Carlsbad over the years. Two things you should visit: The Craftmanship museum is an unassuming hidden gem filled with tiny recreations of complex things. A little out of town: San Marcos Double Peak Park. Stunning views that you can just drive right up too. A great view of a lot of north san diego county.
