The land of beaches and endless sunshine provides some of the coolest, old-fashioned holiday escapes, including one you can send to the folks "back East" in pictures and experienced at San Diego's Skating by the Sea, an annual event at Hotel del Coronado   (shown in photo) on Coronado Island. California has produced many world class skaters, though they often come from places where there's never a snowflake or a frozen lake to learn to skate. Kristi Yamaguchi, Brian Boitano, Peggy Fleming and Michelle Kwan are a few names that have brought skating ...

Standing on Top of the World – G...

California's got it covered when it comes to great views "on top of the world". While major coastal cities in the state-- San Diego, Los Angeles & San Francisco-- all have high rise cocktal lounge viewing spots with comfortable chairs and designer drinks, there are also places you can stand outdoors and see the horizon as it seems to ends at a set of mountains or just continues on among the sparkling waters of the Blue Pacific. Some of our favorite city-views include San Diego's Point Loma at its very tip. ...
Great Weekend for Joy Rides in SoCal

Great Weekend for Joy Rides in SoCal

Pictured above: On the road to Muscle Beach by way of Lomita, CA. We took a joy ride on Martin Luther King weekend. The freeway was backed up for miles with a wreck so we exited and took the city streets. Then we came across the Martin Luther King Parade on Martin Luther King Blvd. intersection of PCH (Pacific Coast Highway) not knowing that was going on. The lesson: if you feel there's anything ordinary about driving in Southern California, you'll probably be wrong. The only thing you CAN say for ...

City of LA Made in Mexico

City of LA Made in Mexico

When visiting Los Angeles, California, do you ever get the feeling it was made in Mexico?  Sometimes when you look down to the paved ground, the manhole covers actually say, "City of LA Made in Mexico". It simply is a matter of fact, as shown in the photograph of one such manhole cover in San Pedro, a region of the City of Los Angeles. Why would LA be made in Mexico?  Los Angeles has quickly become the largest city population in the United States of Mexicans. The Mexican population is ...
