We have friends who live in California, particularly Los Angeles, San Diego and San Francisco, and so we have been there a few times for a visit, sometimes with our kids.

On one trip, we took a short cruise from Los Angeles to Ensenada, Mexico, too.

	San Diego In March 2002, our daughters, Rachenne and Raisa, and we spent the school break in the Southern California city of San Diego, where beaches and parks are in abundance. In 2004, the two of us flew back for a short visit. What a sunny and colorful place!

	From Long Beach to Ensenada and Back We've never been on a cruise, so Kristee and I decided to try it, even just a short trip to find out what the experience is like. To celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary, we boarded the Carnival cruise ship, Ensenada, at the Long Beach Terminal in Los Angeles in late June, 2003.

	The Streets of San Francisco It's October, 2002. Fisherman's Wharf, afternoon fog on the bay, streetcars, the Golden Gate bridge, Alcatraz prison, the world's longest winding road. It's hard to run out of images that depict this lively city.
