Southern California Sunsets

Tay Explores January 15, 2018

It’s that time of the year when I’m missing California a little too much. This year’s East Coast winter has been brutal with below freezing temperatures and all I want to do is go somewhere warm. So although I’m not going anywhere, I do have some photos of spots where I watched the sunset, from my last trip there. (It’s been too long!) 1. Michael D. Antonovich Trail The place to see the sunset here is right from the parking. I actually went here twice. Both times the sky was different. The second time I went, it was a little cloudy and was sprinkling. All the clouds made the sky do such beautiful things. 2. Laguna Beach This is probably one of my favorite beaches and the sunset views here are highly recommended! I have a whole blog post on this beach. Read it here. 3. Corona Del Mar Not…

The bell itself weighs 17…

Sunken City – San Pedro, California

Beaches March 21, 2016

*This post contains affiliate links. Clicking on them will not cost you anything.* In 1929 a landslide caused a community of homes to sink into the ocean. What remained was broken sidewalks and cracked roads. All of which have become a canvas for graffiti artists and a place to hang out for the adventurous. Sunken City is located in San Pedro, California (near Long Beach) and is fenced off with a “No Trespassing” sign. When I realized that you weren’t really allowed to go there, I kind of questioned it a bit. But once you see the pictures, you’ll understand why it was necessary that I went. Hopefully I won’t get into some sort of legal trouble for this post. I can see why it’s blocked off though. It looks a bit dangerous and if people aren’t careful they can easily slip and fall over the cliffs. So, how do you get there? It’s…
