CULTURAL HISTORY BUFF ......
Or so says Calgon's "Traveler Type" quiz link. I've just returned from a six night stay in the Los Angeles area and from what we did on our full 5 days there I don't think the "typing" is that far off! Here's what we did each day...
Day 1.....The LaBrea Tar Pits followed by a visit to the Fairfax Farmer's Market
Day 2.....The Getty Center followed by a visit to the Hollywood Bowl Overlook on Mulholland Drive for photo op of the Hollywood sign
Day 3.....The Huntington Library....Please dear Lord let me be able to visit this place again sometime soon!
Day 4.....Disneyland...well if you're here I guess it just must be done! Give me DisneyWorld every time if Mickey is a must!
Day 5.....The Ronald Reagan Presidential Library
The rest went something like this...

Hawaii is such a wonderful bit of this lovely planet and I know you will have a wonderful visit there. I love the people, history and culture of the Hawaiian Islands and I strongly urge all of you to do a bit of homework prior to your trip. You will reap rich rewards if you do! If you haven't already read James Michener's Hawaii it is a good place to start...and, it is a painless way to garner a bit of the history of the islands.
