Santa Monica Travel Blogs - Page 3

I started off the day at this historic diner, Cafe 50's, looking exactly like a diner back in the those days.  I enjoyed the famous pancakes and the awesome milkshakes!!!   Today, I had the pleasure of meeting Karen, who took the time out of her busy schedule to show me around town…

New England And Some Other Places Stuck In Between

Next, we decided to hit up Santa Monica and check out this posh Socal city.  One really popular place to go was 3rd st, a nice shopping area with shopping and restaurants.  Tons of people out and about.  Also, there are some interesting dinosaur bush sculptures, which were pre…

My girlfriend and I spent a week with my uncle in Pasadena, California. We spent a few days seeing the sites in the L.A. area before heading out to Joshua Tree National Park and the Salton Sea.

My mom and I went to visit family in California during the summer of 2007. Most of our time was spent around LA, but we also got to go to Solvang and Newport Beach. It was a great trip!

Random pictures and thoughts from my life!

I've spent the last few years of my life in West Los Angeles, and just graduated. On the way to the airport, I thought I'd take my parents to the Santa Monica Boardwalk to ride the Ferris wheel and enjoy ourselves for a few hours. =) 

Just some of the few beach photos taken thoughout my first year of college in LA. We had multiple adventures in Santa Monica Beach, Venice Beach, and the Pacific Coast Highway (PCH). The PCH resulted from a random 2am drive out of bordem all around LA. The outcome was the consumption of a #10 at Taco Bell, a watermelon discovery, a watermelon sacrifice, 5 sugar highs, 10 sandy shoes, and a game of jello.
