I love driving up Campbell! It makes me wish I owned a sports car.

I hope you had a chance to read the posts by Monica Spiegleman and Donna Hull. Since they pretty much covered other sections of town, I decided to stay near the corner of Ina and Oracle. Tucson has such a variety that it surely will satisfy everyone. I’ve never had the pizza at AJ’s, and guess who does not eat sushi (corrected, thank you). My husband and I had a delicious dinner for $18 total, and the ambiance provided by the sunset could not be beat. And, gotta differ with you about eegees–love it.

Sorry, but this seems kind of lame and boring. All that Tucson has to offer does not thrive on the NW side. I am glad Bookman’s got a shout out, since it is one of the coolest book stores in the country, but AJ’s is so over-priced (and don’t you spell it “sushi?”), and their pizza is nothing compared to what you will find elsewhere. Also, eegee’s? Gross.
It’s nice to give this section of town a shout-out, but if people come to visit, I would hope they would travel further south to where the real Tucson experience is.

Of course, Bookmans! How could I have left that off any list!
Love your suggestions, Vera. And now it’s time for us all to toast Tucson sunsets, truly some of the best our world offers. Thanks again for your great post!

More choices for visiting Tucson – I love it! Some gelato from Frost sounds good for this weekend.
