I go to a camp in the redwood forest (santa cruz) Mt. Hermon, Ponderosa Lodge (AKA Pondy) always has a theme every year and I wanted to know what theme it is this year.
Last year’s theme was Robin Hood

How should i say this "In den Ferien war ich freunde in Northern Kalifornien gebesucht."

(on my vacation, i visited friends in northern california) past tense, please help!

vielen dank!

I am going to San Francisco & Yosemite. I have time to drive to either Sequoi or Redwoods. In either case I would only go for 1 day, no long hikes, just short trails. Which one should I go to?

hi, i live in northern california and im considering becoming a wedding planner. what would be some ways to go about getting experience? also, they offer an online course through my local jc (college of the redwoods) to become certified. has anyone done anything like this? would you reccomend it?
any help is appreciated. thanks 🙂

I just got back from a weekend trip out to the West Coast and I LOVED the Bay Area, even with this rare rain storm that will be gone by Thursday.

The nation’s friendliest people, I love the steep up and down streets, great food, ALMOST always great weather, 2 hours from snow ski resorts, 2 hours from Desert, 1 hour from vineyards, 2 hours from Gigantic redwood trees, Marin County was AWESOME, Berkeley speaks for itself, work ANY job low-skill or high-skilled and you get 100% of the amenities just like that!

This city is incredible, if I were jobless I’d find a way to the Bay Area, I’d dumpster dive, live on Telegraph Street Berkeley, get 50 people together to share a car.

This would be challenging and adventurous, and WAYYY more fun than sitting in some crappy East Coast town whining that the economy sucks.

Because in the Bay Area, a lot of what makes life good is what the natural earth has to provide, you know….the stuff that doesn’t cost money but instead results in higher real estate costs. BUT…if you share housing together with lots of people, it’s the BEST deal in the world!!!
and now I’m dying for a Ghirardelli Cable Car Rocky Road Ice Cream Sundae and can’t believe the whole Northeastern USA has not one SHOP! Not even NEW YORK has it!
Boulder is next on my travel list
About San Francisco parking, simple solution. Park at a BART station, ANY BART station, then use the train and the muni to get around. Save yourself the parking hastle.

We are looking to move across country from new york to california and humboldt county looks nice. We’re thinking of Arcata, Eureka or McKinleyville. Which area do you like best? Any other towns in humboldt that we should also look into?

Here is a list of the hotels:

Waldorf-Astoria
Hampton Inn
Hilton
Hilton Garden Inn
Doubletree
Conrad
Homewood Suites
Embassy Suites

Hubby and I would like to plan a 3 day mini-vacation with our 2 kiddos (ages under 11) for the beginning of Feb. – – where/what place in CA can you recommend?- No Disneyland. Thanks in advance folks! & Happy New Year!!!

I live in northern california, right near the oregon border, and my daughter has to have surgery in San Fransisco.I can’t afford the drive, flight, motel, or food. Does anyone know of any programs in california that can help with transportation food and lodging to help me. Her surgery is important and i don’t know if california has any programs to help those with a lower income.

I am going to LA with my family this fourth-of-July weekend for two or three nights. We are a teenage girl, a six-year-old boy, and two parents. We are actually going down from Northern California to buy a car, so that will take some time away from actual vacationing.

Some restaurant and hotel recommendations would be appreciated too.

What are some fun things to do? We like shopping and going to the beach, but we always do that, so we are looking for some new things to try.
