California is a 12 hour drive away from my home state or an hour and 15 minute flight (approx.) I have been to L.A. many times, Disneyland many times, San diego several times, and Palm Springs only once. There is something in this state for everyone.

My favorite place so far of the places In California has been Palm Springs (in November/December) It is much warmer at that time of year than any other place in Calofornia I have been. Great resteraunts and wonderful shopping. Low traffic! Great hotels and golf. If you want a quick getaway of relaxation.. this is the perfect place during winter months.
