Add Some Diversity to Your Summer Travel

Posted by Dan on May 9, 2009 in Lucky Hit

I’d like to make a suggestion for a vacation destination where you can find a great deal of variety in the type of local attractions offered.  Everybody has different goals for their summer travel.  Some of us want to visit Disneyland and some just want to relax on the beach.  Others love to see historical sites and still others love to play golf.

Summer California actually offers activities in all of these categories.  There are many golf courses between the Pacific Ocean and Palm Desert.  And, of course, you’ll find plenty of beach action for sun worshipping.

Another obvious destination is the Disneyland Resort, which includes Downtown Disney and Disney’s California Adventure (by the way, Disney is spending like a billion dollars on a major renovation of California Adventure over the next several years).

If you haven’t been to Anaheim in several years, you’ll be amazed at the changes.  California Adventure exhibits the diversity of California culture, from citrus orchards to downtown Los Angeles to the northern California Wine Country.  You will observe an international blend of cultures in the visitors at the parks and at Downtown Disney.  It is a great place for people watching—a veritable cultural melting pot.

Speaking of a cultural melting pot, Southern California is a concoction of people and cultures from around the world.  There is a particularly strong presence from Pacific Rim countries, but Europe, Asia and Africa are likewise well represented (not so many folks from Antarctica).

You’ll find quite a number of ethnic communities scattered throughout Southern California, and worth a visit in your summer travel activities.  The first community that comes to mind is Chinatown, just north of the Los Angeles central business district.  Just to the east of downtown is Little Tokyo.  Koreatown lies on the west side of the 110 Freeway.

Take time out of your schedule to drive down to Orange County to visit downtown Santa Ana, portions of which will remind you of a medium-sized city in Mexico.  Nearby Little Saigon offers shopping and dining with a Vietnamese and Southeast Asia influence.  There are no-doubt many other ethnic area in the Southern California melting pot.

Tough Decisions when Buying a New Bugaboo Pushchair

Posted by Dan on May 9, 2009 in Lucky Hit

The Bugaboo Pushchair range are available in a large range of stylesto fit any new children and are designed with style and function in mind.

The Bugaboo Stroller range styles include the Bugaboo Chameleon which consists of a very light frame with a strap for carrying, one-handed folding, a protective sun cover made up of waterproof materials, a netted basket underneath for easy storage and a breathable netting panel sewn into the one position seat for infants six months to 35 pounds.

The Bugaboo Chameleon is made of all quilted comfort cotton, dual suspension wheels, and netted basket underneath, a solid material sun canopy and in one position seat for infants six months to 35 pounds. There is also a Bugaboo Twin pushchair and it is made exactly the same as the regular Bugaboo, only this one holds two children or two infants side-by-side. It looks as if two Bugaboo Twin pushcarts are attached to one another.

Paying for an expensive stroller like the Bugaboo Cameleon Stroller might seem over the top but it’s worth the money.

The Bugaboo Bee is in a similar style to the New Bugaboo Chameleon in that it is made with quilted comfort cotton, twin suspension wheels and a netted basket underneath in addition to a sun parasol of your choosing and the one position seat for babies ranging from six months to 35 pounds.

The full line of Bugaboo strollers contains a unique one-handed folding system and strong wheelset for tight spaces.

The Bugaboo Bee is made from quality cotton with a netted basket underneath and a solid material sun parasol. This model comes in a rainbow range of solid material where as most other Bugaboo strollers are made of solid colors.
