Eric Pemper’s Hometown

San Diego is a fascinating city and there are many attractions and activities to prove it.
Eric Pemper loves to spend time with his family when he has the chance. San Diego is loaded with family fun entertainment. Eric enjoys taking his younger cousins, nieces, and nephews to amusement parks like Belmont Park, SeaWorld, or LegoLand. LegoLand, a theme park based on the Lego toy brand is his favorite. The amusement park is filled with roller coaster rides, water attractions, a miniature golf course within one of its many themed sections, and MiniLand USA, a section of the park that resembles USA cities like Las Vegas, New York, Seattle, and more all made out of Legos.
Eric Pemper enjoys sports and is a fan of the local teams. The San Diego Padres baseball team and San Diego Chargers football team are the two big ones. The city of San Diego is home to one of the nation’s most premier municipal golf courses. Torrey Pines Golf Course hosted the prestigious U. S. Open golf tournament in 2008.

Torrey Pines is not only for the pros, it is open to the public, so Eric Pemper enjoys working on his golf game on his days off.
What makes San Diego so great and the main reason why Eric calls it home are the beaches. San Diego lies on the coast of the Pacific Ocean giving it spectacular beaches for surfing, sun tanning or watching the sunset along the boardwalk. The 4 mile boardwalk in San Diego extends from Mission Beach to Ocean Beach to Pacific Beach in between the two. Eric Pemper enjoys walking along the boardwalk with his family and stopping by one of the many restaurants for a bite to eat.
