Dress code
by matcrazy1
It seems that either locals and visitors wear just casual clothes in Oceanside. For some people casual clothes means a shapeless T-shirt and old jeans, for other chinos and sweaters.
Both are socially acceptable in Oceanside and generally in California - maybe except in top, luxury restaurants. Am I right? I never visited them. Try to guess why? :-))).
From my friend Linda (lmkluque):
Casual is accepted in most places unless stated at the door, ie. "Jacket and Tie required" or "No Tennis Shoes" etc. However, each person should dress in the way they feel comfortable for the occasion. Tourist often don't have dressy clothes with them so their casualness is overlooked. See what I mean?
Thank you Linda.
Watch birds

Walking around the Oceanside Marina pay attention to the birds swimming in the Pacific Ocean and sitting around, mainly in numerous boats/yachts.
Enlarge my picture please. What bird is it? Pelican??? If you know please e-mail me.

THANK YOU Elisabeth!
From Justin (JustinJansen):

Great burger joint
by spartan about Schooners Burgers "N" Beer
Mom and pop sports bar where their is no table service (says so on the sign), but that allows them to keep costs down. You go pickup your utensils and condiments then head back to the table and wait for your number to be called. You can get a basket full of peanuts and throw the shells on the floor. Overall, it's a nice setup. Try one of the following: The Teriyaki burger or the 1/2 lb. Cheese Burger with tomato, lettuce, onion and pickle on a sesame seed bun . Throw in some fries and a cold Bass Ale and the tab came to $10.77.
