I’ve Got A Few Summer Travel Ideas

If you are like me, you are watching your travel budget carefully, asking where you can go that’s interesting but affordable. Here’s an idea, how about a SoCal vacation? It’s got the beaches, theme parks, roller coasters, Hollywood and lots more.
The beautiful state of Hawaii should also be on the list, if you find a good deal on airfare. You can almost feel that warm ocean water right now, but remember that there are offsetting advantages to the Golden State. There’s a friendly comparison between vacations in California vs. Hawaii at the SoCal Vacation Guru that you might find interesting. Keep in mind that there are way fewer underwater rocks to worry about in the California surf, and the humidity and sun intensity are a little easier to handle in the summer. The water temperature is higher in the Aloha state, but in the middle of summer, the cooler water can be more refreshing.
A Hawaiian vacation does offer beautiful subtropical vegetation and fascinating Polynesian cultural experiences. But don’t forget the melting pot of many different cultures to be experienced in California, as well as the mountains, desert and coastline.
The beaches are just one of many attractions to be enjoyed in Southern California. You could spend a week checking out the seven top-notch theme parks between San Diego and Los Angeles County. You will find world-class thrill rides at Knott’s Berry Farm and Six Flags Magic Mountain; the Six Flags roller coasters are particularly plentiful. You’ll discover many intimidating coasters and thrill rides at Knott’s and Six Flags. Disneyland has a few attractions that would be considered thrill rides, but not nearly as many as those other two parks.
There aren’t many roller coasters to be found in Hawaii, unless you consider wintertime surfing to qualify in that category. In terms of the budget, there may be great vacation specials to both destinations, but you can drive to California if airfare is too costly.

If you have not traveled by Amtrak for a vacation, perhaps it is time to to give it some consideration. Many North American destination cities are easily accessible by train. Given how beautiful and interesting our country is, the trip itself can be a big part of the total enjoyment.
Of all the many great vacation destinations accessible by train, San Diego must be near the top of the list. It is easy to take a train to the historic station and then use public transit for getting around locally. Compared to other parts of Southern California, San Diego is actually relatively close together. In fact, a lot of the attractions can be enjoyed by walking.
There is no shortage of fun places of interest in San Diego. Visiting all of the beaches, museums, historical attractions and other amusements could truly take weeks. There certainly would be no problem filling a busy week of vacation in this beach-oriented city. One of the major features that San Diego offers its guests and residents alike is its wonderful, moderate weather, especially in the summertime.
Continuing your train travel up the West Coast past Los Angeles would be an option if you would like to plan an even more substantial trip. AmTrak runs from the downtown San Diego station to downtown Los Angeles Union Station with a few stops in between. By doing any of the above, it would be reasonable to engage in a one- or two-week vacation without using a car.
Don’t forget that a trip by train can add several days on to the total schedule compared to flying, but if you have the right mindset the traveling can be part of the overall enjoyment of the trip.
