Vacation guide to California

If you are coming to Southern California there are so many things to do with so little time. If you are looking to get away from the city and enjoy a nice quiet peaceful vacation then you should head out to Palm Springs. Palm Springs is full of shopping, fine dining, spa’s, even nudest colonies. An endless array of golf and tennis courses. Casino’s if you love to gamble, they also have plenty of concerts and a comedy show every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday night. If you have children or love to have fun, there is a waterpark on the days when a pool just does not seem enough. There is also the Palm Springs air museum. Near by is the Children’s discovery museum. If you like to see plays, there is The Folly’s which is for an older crowd, and not too far away is the McCullum theater. Every Thursday night is the street fair, where the city closes off the strip to traffic, for food, music, horse & carriage rides, art, and tons of booths to choose from. Near by is Indio California, known for its festivals. Depending on what time of the year you choose your vacation, you might end up around the time of a festival. There is the riverside county national date festival, which is a carnival, concerts, rodeo, monster trucks, ostrich races and many more. Tamale festival, which is full of people competing to make the best tamales, tons of food, rides and games for the kids. The Coachella music and Arts festival and lets not forget the Palm Springs Film Festival,just to name a few. Palm Springs is full of celebrities that live here locally or just come to get away, whatever the case may be you are bound to have a relaxing time in beautiful Palm Springs. You can not leave California without visiting, Universal Studios, located in Universal City, CA (Los Angeles) Outside of universal studios is the beautiful city walk, with shops, food, The hard rock cafe, movies and one of my favorites Tommy’s world famous chilie burgers. If you are in to theme parks not too far away is Magic Mountain located in Ventura. If you are going to be in Los Angeles, Venice Beach is a nice place to spend the day. Full of food, dining, shows and people you will probably never see anywhere else. Right next to Venice is Santa Monica, there is a promenade and a peer there, with food, arcade games and rides. I think Los Angeles pretty much has made a name for its self, there are endless things you can do there. Go to Hollywood down sunset strip. Check out Beverly Hills Rodeo drive, go by the staple center for any number of events, in the summer there is ESPN’s X games, year round the WWE wrestlers come, many concerts and tons of fun for a first time visitors coming to Los Angeles. Lets not forget about Long Beach, where you can go out to the aquarium of the pacific and then head downtown to site see. Then there is Orange County, who wants to come to California and not go to Disneyland. Right near Disneyland is the Angels stadium, if you are a fan of baseball. Lasts but certainly not least, San Diego California. A beautiful city, fine dinning, and tons of night life. If you are looking to lay out, head over to Mission beach. You can rent skates, bikes, surf boards, ride roller coasters, win prizes and have fun for the entire family. If you are looking to get away and relax I would suggest going to Palm Springs. If you have a family and are looking for amusement parks and beaches, defiantly check out Los Angeles. What ever you choose, you will can not go wrong when it comes to Southern California.
