Pat and I on the Hertz shuttle bus to LAX airport early Sunday morning - very happy after another wonderful California holiday |
Where do I start? So many wonderful memories of our California winter holiday vacation.
Me and Pat on plane to Los Angeles Saturday February 11, 2017 - the beginning of our wonderful annual adventure in California |
Rather than post several long posts I'm going to post many short posts of my memories of our fantastic California holiday. But first I want to thank my good friend and travel sidekick, that sweet and wonderful guy from Toronto Canada, Pat F. for making this long time dream of mine possible.
For many years, I have wanted to visit California, especially Hollywood. However, Bill (my hubby) has never had a desire to visit Hollywood or go anyplace except his boyhood home in Toccoa Georgia. For many years, I used to visit Provincetown, Massachusetts. Three times I went with a friend and each time as soon as we got there they found a boyfriend and took off leaving me alone. Once Bill went with me but he hated Provincetown so much that he refused to come out of his Best Western hotel room. Thus, most of my visits to Provincetown I went by myself. Then, after my last visit to Provincetown I decided not to make any more trips by myself. Taking these trips with a friend is definitely a lot better than going solo. Then came along Pat F. four years ago.
This is the third year we have visited California. And folks, I'm telling you each visit gets better.
And something else folks, as good as these trips are (and they are) reliving memories of our trip by videos and photos in this blog is great! And folks, I have a LOT (over 500) photos and videos! But I promise you I won't post all of them but just enough to give you the flavor and the enjoyment we had on this, our annual winter holiday in the golden state of California.
Enjoy!
