I used to live there, it was beautiful and one of the best times of my life. Depends on what part you are in. I was in Coronado, just off of San Diego.

I know we all go nuts over the "high capacity" magazine bans and such, but it's not a bad lifestyle. Problem may be in taking a pay cut and at the same time moving to a place with a much higher cost of living. Once again, depends on where you are.

This is an interesting conversation, thank you all for the stories. My wife and I are late 30s w/ no kids (DINKs) that make a very good living, but considering taking a couple of years to sail around the Caribbean while we are still fairly young. It's still a few years away, but still stressful to think about the change sometimes.
