navy2010,
you really knocked yourself out with the things-to-do list, but you didn’t say anything about good places to SHOP! We live near South Coast Plaza and Fashion Island, so the competition here is pretty steep! Just heard that they’re putting a Bloomingdales in South Coast Plaza.

jamzmom,
if your darling boy wants to really experience the wilderness, tell him to buy a plane ticket and come to California so he can hike in the Sierra Nevada, southern Utah, Colorado, Grand Canyon…or check the National Park Service website.

bill, had to laugh at your post…jones beach–I had the same reaction. I was a senior in college in the first time I visited Long Island. I ordered a margarita before dinner in a restaurant and they made it with tequila, creme de menthe, and SALT. Gag me! Tamales! Cultural diffusion has profoundly altered menus across our great country!
