my husband wants to take leave sometime in the next two months, due to my pregnancy i am not able to fly (yes, the doc’s orders). i like sight seeing but he’s not too into that. he likes to fish. also my pregnancy is in the beggining of the third tri. so too much walking, well mainly stairs or hills at this point, is out of the question.
we’re in CA. i was thinking about the grad-canyon. i’ve already been too the redwoods and crater lake. and yellowstone.
My husband and I want to take a weekend camping trip to the Redwoods in NorCal sometime. Anyone know of any good areas to camp at?
We can settle for a hotel as well, but camping sounds more fun.
Me and the bf’s 2 year anniversary is coming up late April.
I thought we could go check out the hearst castle and spend the weekend at a nice hotel/lodge.
We are 18, and are trying to find something romantic/new/not too expensive/ in Northern California.We are looking forward to a nice room and watching lots of movies and cuddlin.
We are in San Francisco.
Getting a taxi in Santa Clara County
The South Bay area of California is a great destination spot for vacationers from around the country. The possibilities for a fun and relaxing vacation or weekend are endless.
San Jose alone offers numerous attractions. Come to town for a concert at the Mountain View Ampitheter. The Winchester Mystery House alone is worth the visit. But don’t drive! You can get a cab from the airports or Caltrain station. The attractions are spread over a wide area in this South Bay city, and a cab can get you to any destination easily and quickly. A taxi cab can transport up to 7 people for the price of a single person and is equipped with GPS computer dispatching, so you get another cab whenever and wherever you want. No need to schedule your interests around a bus schedule and no driving around and around looking for a parking space and paying expensive parking fees. The Tech Museum, art museums and Great America are among many attractions here. Hundreds visit Stanford University and Medical Center every year. A trouble-free cab ride will take you to the exact area of this vast complex with no hassle. Parking on campus is unimaginably difficult, and then you may have to walk several blocks.
Santa Clara also boosts a University and law school; finding a cab is effortless from the Caltrain station. There is also a huge convention center here, and visitors will find that hailing a cab is far cheaper and faster that trying to navigate a strange town on their own.
The whole of the South Bay offers beautiful, and often historic hotels, cozy B & B’s and lavish resorts. Menlo Park, Mountain View, Saratoga, Sunnyvale, Redwood City, and Santa Clara attract many visitors to this ‘Silicon Valley’. There are countless wineries located here; a perfect time to hire a cab for the day. Don’t drink and drive–have fun and relax. Hire a safe, clean-air-condition taxi for your transportation needs. Drivers, familiar with the area, are police department tested and certified.

My fiance and I have an 8 month old daughter, and we’re trying to find good places to visit in California for vacation during the winter season (aside from Lake Tahoe, which we visited last year). We currently live in L.A. county, but would like to see some new places. Our daughter will be a year old by the time we take this vacation. What are some good vacations for our little family to take and have a good time?
