California

by bugalugs - last update: Feb 16, 2003

Cable Car - San Francisco
I dont know who was more excited me or my son who was 11 years old at the time, that we were off to California.

California has it all, sun snow, cities, beaches, deserts, mountains and forests. I suppose thinking of California we conjure up images of San Francisco, Los Angeles and Hollywood. But there is so much more to see in this huge state. Unfortunately a two week holiday is certainly not enough. If you get the chance before visiting, try and read as much as you can. If you are not going on an organised tour, but are planning a fly drive and have never been before like we had'nt, try to plan on what you want to see each day. We probably tried to see too much in too short a time and very probably missed seeing some things that we would have liked.


Here is a mini tour of our California holiday. Visiting:
San Fransisco
Palo Alto
Monterey
17 Mile Drive
Carmel
San Luis Obispo
Morro Bay
Los Angeles
Hollywood
Anaheim
Santa Monica
Long Beach
Huntington Beach
San Diego
I hope you enjoy this whistle stop tour!

Pros:"Such vastly different places to visit!"
Cons:"Not enough time to see everything!"
In A Nutshell:"Dreaming of California - On a winters day!"

 Come back to California. You missed Santa Barbara or you just were so overwhelmed you couldn't find to words to write about it. This summer has been wonderful, while all of the USA is sweltering in heat, we have a cool marine air.

 Just do not eat the salad. I had a big black bug in mine, and the Mgr. says sometimes produce comes in with bugs, but it is beyond their control. LOL

 This brings back memories of my own family childhood summer vacations to California. I think you've motivated me to bring out the old photo albums and make use of my scanner!
