Located on a shallow hill in the Long Beach Marina, the traditional-looking Rainbow Harbor Light is not actually used for navigation, but is worth mention due to its unique displays. Its rotating light is pointed more downward than seaward and sweeps the base of the palm-lined hill. At each rotation…

My niece took me to her favorite local music store and we stayed there for over an hour! New and used Cd's, Records, Dvds, plus cute bags and shirts. Worth a stop to pick up some good music and support the indie music scene.

Before the show I spent a really eerie time walking around the Long Beach Convention Center, so quiet and empty, when a couple of weeks before there were 60,000 screaming fans who couldn’t be heard over the roar of the engines at the Long Beach Grand Prix.
Inside the Terrace Theater, which is r…

I spent a very nice afternoon at the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach California. My review on this is mixed:
1. I had a very nice time, no doubt about it; but it was smaller than I anticipated and so I was a *little* let down on number of halls etc. It wasn't bad, and it wasn't tiny - bu…

This was an interesting "attraction" as I am not a car fan at all. But, I figure, it is one of those things that one should check out at least once and never have to do again. It was surprisingly enjoyable. Perhaps, it helped that I was at someone's condo high rise and observed the race from abov…

Long Beach has this part of downtown, near a pier, that they call "The
Pike". It's home to some great happy hours at Island or Gameworks, and

Since her retirement from service in 1967 this beautiful ship has been permanently docked in Long Beach and is now a hotel and museum. It has had little success in being the tourist attraction Long Beach was hoping she would be. And from 1980 through 1993 Howard Hughes’s airplane, the “Spruce G…
