It's way better than any Florida beach I've been to just the energy and the family element of it all was great. Plus they have a side just for surfers and flecks of gold particles in the sand that shine and make everything so magical. I also went to Disneyland and California Adventure (which was super fun) but NOTHING compared to Disney World (which I go to every year). I loved California but I think it's whack that the clubs close at 2. (That's when people ARRIVE at clubs in Miami! And we leave when we FEEL like leaving) Some clubs do sunrise sessions and people stay from 12-12! But anyways, I loved California, it was my first trip west of anywhere but I missed the Chicken 'n Waffles unfortunately...But In N Out is the s**t!!! I need someone to ship me that overnight cos I miss it!!

I know this thread is ancient, but another "only in the USA" item is seeing the Amish, preferably in Pennsylvania Dutch country, and eating at a down home Amish or Mennonite run restaurant.

Actually, my favorite is in Grantsville, Maryland - The Penn Alps. Friday nights are especially yummy (try the dried corn!), but even you don't eat, the Artisan Village is amazing! I've yet to leave without buying something!


ETA: And for heaven's sake, please be respectful, and don't try to take their pictures! It's terribly rude, and there are plenty of postcards you can buy instead. Even their dolls don't have facial features.
