The last part of our USA trip taken in Dec 2010 was spent in Los Angeles.
Day 11: We spent the day doing final shopping at Camarillo Premium Outlets. Okay, we didn't buy a lot of stuff, but we did a lot of walking... since the place was huge!
And the weather was so great, it was sunny California, after all that rain in the first part of the trip.
We even had airplanes flying overhead (seems like there was a small airfield nearby).
While we didn't get to do a lot during this trip, it is spending time with family that was the real goal of this. I managed to spend time with my cousin (whom I grew up with), and the two distant cousins (my son, and my cousin's son) were also able to play and get to know each other.
Day 12: Time to go. We got to the airport to catch our flight across the Pacific Ocean to Japan, where we intended to spend the new year.
Total distance driven: 218 miles
We had a Nissan car this time round, but never got round to taking a picture of it. And it was a "keyless" car... the kind that you start by pressing a button. Never driven such a car before... so it took a while to figure out how to start the car!
