The purpose of the trip was to meet with my niece and her son, who had flown in from New Zealand. Then we'd go to all the tourist traps in Southern California. First port of call was Anaheim to visitLue lisää

We didn't do much of anything on the last day at the apartment, just went out for a stroll and some lunch.

I stayed one more night at the AIrBnB, then took the Coast Starlight from Union Station back to Oakland. Beautiful rail trip, once again!
