May 25, 2022 by Island Miler

Trying the Famous Porto's Cheese Roll

Another foodie goal of ours in Los Angeles was trying the famous Porto's Cheese Roll. I only recently learned of them - probably just before the pandemic hit. But everyone that has tried them loves them, so we had to give them a try! … [Read more...] about Trying the Famous Porto’s Cheese Roll

Los Angeles Sweets

After visiting the Space Shuttle Endeavour, it was time to go hunt down some Los Angeles Sweets. Of course, this meant battling tons of traffic to not get very far. But was our trek worth it? I thought so.  … [Read more...] about Los Angeles Sweets

Visiting Space Shuttle Endeavour

Visiting Space Shuttle Endeavour

It's long been my dream to witness a space shuttle launch. Since that never happened, the next best thing was to visit an actual orbiter. Not being able to see Discovery in Washington D.C., visiting Space Shuttle Endeavour in California was an incredible redemption for me.  … [Read more...] about Visiting Space Shuttle Endeavour

Los Angeles Airport Marriott

Given that we were flying out of LAX, I wanted to stay a night closer to the airport. No way were we driving up from Costa Mesa the day of! And for this stay, I chose the Los Angeles Airport Marriott.  … [Read more...] about Review: Los Angeles Airport Marriott

Pizzeria Mozza Newport Beach

March 22, 2022 by Island Miler

Pizzeria Mozza Newport Beach

I've long been a fan of Nancy Silverton. Her eponymous La Brea Bakery was my go-to before quality, artisan bread became available here on Oahu. So when we went to Costa Mesa last September, I made it a point to give Pizzeria Mozza Newport Beach a try. … [Read more...] about Pizzeria Mozza Newport Beach

Taco Maria – Incredible Alta California Cuisine!

March 10, 2022 by Island Miler

Taco Maria

At the time of our visit, Taco Maria was the only Michelin-starred restaurant in Orange County, California. But they're so much more than just a starred restaurant - it's a delicious homage to a family, culture, and location. And they're now one of my favorite restaurants anywhere. … [Read more...] about Taco Maria – Incredible Alta California Cuisine!

Alamo Rent A Car Los Angeles Airport

February 24, 2022 by Island Miler

Alamo Rent A Car Los Angeles Airport

When I was looking at car prices in Los Angeles, National was stupid expensive. So, I settled for the slightly less expensive Alamo Rent A Car Los Angeles Airport. I did, however, spring for a midsize CUV (still cheaper than Emerald Aisle), which may not have been the best idea. … [Read more...] about Alamo Rent A Car Los Angeles Airport

Say Farewell to the Disney FastPass

For years, now, visitors to Disneyland and Walt Disney World could cut their wait times by using their FastPass system. However, it's time to say farewell to the Disney FastPass system, as the House of Mouse works to bring a new system online. Unfortunately, this also marks the end of a free option. … [Read more...] about Say Farewell to the Disney FastPass
