My neighbor was just over telling me about cruise reservations they just made so they can go down the coast of the Pacific in Mexico, leaving from Los Angeles. The cruise sounds wonderful, and this is such a good time of the year to explore the south coast of the Pacific, compared to going to the northern coast, for destinations like Vancouver or British Columbia. They got a great rate on their cruise reservations, but now have to search for airline ticket reservations to get to LA.

I suggested that they drive, but when you consider what it costs to park at the LA airport, it may be just as cheap to fly there, and save the stress of driving through LA. Traffic in LA is notoriously unpredictable. One may be able to sail through at 80 miles an hour, and there are other times when a person is lucky to hit 30 miles an hour from San Bernardino County, all the way to the airport. In any case, I'm glad they got their cruise reservations for March, which is a gorgeous time of year out west, and no matter how they get there, I am sure they will have a wonderful time.
