My dad’s summer visits to California have often forced us to join in the “traipse of the tourists” visiting every theme park and attraction, including casinos, within driving distance. Some have been extraordinary adventures; others much more ordinary. This year I opted for culture and a very different kind of destination.

I've only begun to travel alone in the last few years. Major changes in the autumn of my life have forced me, not unwillingly, to embrace my independence. Once I wrote about family travel destinations and unique ways to save money and have a great time with your children. Now I find myself addressing the 'Baby Boomers". Just so you know I have decided to be a "Bloomer" not a Boomer! I feel as if my life has just begun to blossom.
Life cannot get any better than spending a week in Oahu, Hawaii's

I am not Samantha Brown, Andrew Zimmern or Tony Bourdain. I am Jersey. I am a Baby Bloomer…64 years old, divorced, still teaching and just starting to blossom.
In the last few years, I have gone sky-diving, zip lining, swimming in Mexican ceynotes, snorkeling coral reefs, kayaking, off-roading, swimming with dolphins and drinking Hurricanes on Bourbon Street. All for the very first time…and all alone!!!!
I do not eat cow eyeballs or testicles, I do not venture into

I stumbled across a Facebook page called, "You Know You're from Oakland If ..."
There were comments about all sorts of local trivia, long closed restaurants, streets that have undergone name changes ...
Reading all of those comments brought back lots of memories and made me a bit homesick because Oakland, California, is my hometown. But I haven't actually lived there for 30 years, and I left the Bay Area 20 years ago to live in Hong Kong.

For many years I was a member of the La Jolla Family Y, but I really prefer the classes and facilities at the La Jolla Sports Club. The Pilates classes are particularly good, and I’ve also taken a good stretch class. I’m not into spinning, but that’s offered, too –
