If I remember correctly, Silicon Valley is just a bunch of electronics factories somewhere south of L.A. It's probably in Orange County. I don't know why anybody would go there, but within a short drive you can find Disneyland and Long Beach. Long beach, home of the Queen Mary, is the jumping off place for Santa Catalina. Just 26 miles on a boat and you are in a very interesting little town called Avalon. Or a magic little place called Two Harbors. Don't miss Santa Catalina. Carlsbad Beach State Park is nice if you go toward San Diego. And Huntington Beach is a good place to go sightseeing. And there's always Burbank, but it's a white-knuckles freeway ride to the north side of the big city. Mountains and deserts are to the east. Do you know what's on top of Mt. Polomar?
