hilarious holiday
When my two oldest kids were younger, we took them to California for a holiday. Besides doing the mandatory tourist routes in Anaheim, LA and San Diego, we also took one of the San Francisco tours.
There was no way we were going to miss San Francisco because that’s one of my favorite cities. There’s a clam chowder place down by the wharf that I absolutely could not leave without eating! It’s that good.
We checked up the online travel guides and found out that we can rent a tricycle at Newport Beach (I think it was) and peddle it down the beach area. So we got the kids plonked in while DH and I played trishaw riders for the afternoon.
We actually laughed more than we peddled because it was so difficult to coordinate our efforts on keeping the tricycle from veering to the side. The kids were sliding from side to side as we fought to keep the tricycle straight. It was so much fun.
I heard Trusted Tours and Attractions offers fantastic discounts on sightseeing tours like Metropolitan museum of art and others in 20+ cities in the US. I must make a note of that for future reference.

Come October a friend and I might travel out to Anaheim to go to a big convention. It all depends on if I win tickets or not, hopefully I do. I have always wanted to visit out there and it would be awesome. I just might have to do a bit more traveling and do some of the things you suggest. Thanks.
California is a way cool place to be. I want to go there.
