The Drive Thru Bottle Shop. Santa Claus and his helpers all arrived on Harley Davidson motor bikes. Surfers Paradise and the Slots everywhere ! The Meter Maids in their Gold Bikinis rolling around on their skates adding quarters to Parking Meters about to run out. The Gold Coast is one of those places you...

Re: California road trip ideas

Theodore Behr ·
That helps me figure out what to tell you, Mrs. Briggs OK, so I'd suggest you fly into LAX. You'll need a car rental to get around LA. Spend three or four days here, may go see Disneyland, maybe go see Universal Studios, maybe go to Knott's Berry Farm. Maybe see the making of a TV show.

You'll want to head out on Hwy 101, which takes you...

Thank you, Travel and Nature! I would have to say that Joe, our owner, who originally authored this as a blog post on our website ( www.innonthealameda.com ) is a bit of both. I know he was a middle school teacher when he first came to Santa Fe, but I'm not sure if history was his subject or not. Originally Posted by TravelandNature: Has it been 102 years already ?

Jhon Issac ·
I recently got a puppy shortly after my graduation. Living alone without having anyone to give my endless love was starting to bother me.

How to promote a tourist destination?
