I am so excited!!! May 21st I am flying out to California to stay with a couple of my friends that moved there when they graduated a couple years ago. I can't wait. They live in Orange County. I am flying into the Los Angeles airport. I have never ever been on a plane or traveled anywere significant really. I can't wait to go. My boyfriend has to work so he is keeping Nikki and Jewels. I'm sure going to miss my babies. I'm going to be gone for 11 days. I hope to do a lot of things while i'm there. I want to go to universal studios and to the beach and hollywood. At universal studios i seen on the website they have an animal planet thing. I thought that would be awesome to see!!! Well, does anyone have any advice for a first time flyer??? lol.

whoa....thats crazy. I'm not sure where abouts they live in Orange County. I will have to ask them tomorrow and see. So have you ever seen any stars???

The only one I saw was Tom hanks with his wife at Disneyland. When my sister was here visiting she saw Jada Pinkett Smith pushing her baby carriage in Beverly Hills. Other than that not many star sightings. Who knows you might get lucky. Either way I hope you have a fabulous time.
Actually we also saw Danny Glover at the airport once. Also my brothers school had a fundraiser with stars playing basketball so we saw a few there too.

Have a blast! I'd love to go to California and see all those places. I have no advice, but IMO I'd make sure I got a window seat on the plane! If you gotta fly, you might as well get a killer view! I'll be anxious to hear how your trip went!
Have fun...

The city of Orange is in Orange County. It's only 10-15 minutes by car away from me.

Mmmmm, I envy you!!! I feel I need a rest too! I would be happy to go on vacation somewhere now. But it will only occur in two months *sigh*....

Have a lot of fun!

P.S. and moving this thread to the travel section.

Well, I am here in California. I love it here. Especially the palm trees. The ocean is so beautiful. I had never seen it before. I thought California was all palm trees though hehehe. I guess I was wrong lol. I sure do miss my babies though.

I love just taking in the scenary. And there is so much kewl stuff here. A lot different then little ole Missouri.
