Baldwin Hills
This is an City view hike. Just stairs to the viewpoint but it was beautiful and good workout.
Getty Villa Museum
This museum is free to visit. It is located very close to the beach. It has Greece exhibits from a wide range of period from BC to AD. I loved the terracotta works from BC era. Such detail and beauty. They had exhibits of perfume bottles made out of glass which looked like something I…
Inspiration Point @ Will Rogers State park
This is a lovely hike. Easy and short but rewards with many beautiful views of coast, city and tree bound trail. This 2 mile loop is situated in Will Roger’s State park. State park has a entry fee of $3/hour. We paid for 2 hours and that was just good enough for us to do…
Newport beach
I have been wanting to visit this beach for some years now. Somehow it never materialized. This time it happened totally by accident. We took a stroll and looked at all those stunning beach houses.

Parker Incline
In this winter, I barely got to get out. I was tired of being indoors, so we decided to do the incline challenge. Parker edition. This is located near Hess reservoir. A new one. It is not very difficult around 200 steps? 1.5 miles but was a good workout. My dear husband got a better…
Dedisse park
After a lot of thought on where to go, I choose this place. My brother was in town and I wanted to take him somewhere nice. Considering my baby’s needs and comfort, I choose a place that was not too far yet a scenic place. Dedisee park is located in Evergreen. I chose to do…
