Visalia is five miles east of Highway 99, nearly halfway between Fresno and Bakersfield in the San Joaquin Valley.

I couldn't believe how worthless STA travel in San Diego was for planning our trip, or getting any basic information. In the end we simply looked up flights to Bangkok on Travelocity and got a really good deal.
