[ack_attack]

i am much happier now :)

luckily my bouts of rage only last about an hour, and then they disappear into the ether.

and i made some really funny lord of the rings icons that i'll unleash tomorrow. at least, i think they're really funny. i crack me up!

and now: a call for help! (especially for pinkhairedcyn and simply_rose and anyone else who lives in california

The only time I've been to Cali was on a choir competition trip to San Diego. I don't feel that I'm very helpful here. It was a blast, for what it's worth... But that's about all I remember.

oh man i used to go to choir competitions all the time! but we went to hershey park in PA. we all had to wear matching mustard color polo shirts hahaha

[crayon_goddess]

Our polos were navy. BUT we had horrible dresses! Oh, man. They were cream and maroon and they had huge bows down the front! Aaaaah! We went to a different place every year for competition. New York City, Nashville, D.C., Boston, San Diego... Lots of places!

I'd say Disneyland, Knott's Berry Farm, or Six Flags, but it looks like you're not going near those areas so ... I'll ask some friends of mine who are from San Diego and San Francisco what they think (I'm from the Los Angeles/Orange County area myself).

[ack_attack]

unfortunately i think i'm going to have to skip disneyland (i have permanant vertigo that renders me useless on amusement rides), and i've been to disneyworld many times. but this knott's berry farm has been suggested by a few people, i need to check it out! thanks :D

[happyeaster]

Umm ... San Diego also has SeaWorld, LegoLand and the Wild Animal Park.

[superfrayed]

I've never been, but one of my friends moved out there and one of the things she says we *must* do when I visit it go to San Francisco & visit the fisherman's market..I also wanted to go to Alcatraz, cause that would be neat!

I am *so* jealous!

[ack_attack]

oh yeah isn't that where they throw the fish around? i remember that from the real world opening sequence from like 50 years ago haha. i've never been either, i am really excited! i would never have been able to afford it, but i won free roundtrip plane tickets to anywhere in the country at my company xmas party :D

[verdenia]

Fisherman's Wharf is a pretty big/keen tourist spot, yes, but...
Alcatraz is truly spooky and takes a long time. Bad Vibes. I prefer to visit it in a Tony Hawk video game. ;P

[mynameiskristen]

[ack_attack]

It's been awhile since I've been to California, but I remember the Monterey area being really pretty.

I personally would love to go to the Cornerstone Gardens. And they're in wine country!

[ack_attack]
