“Dear Yenta, I am wracking my brain trying to find a nice getaway location for my 12-year-old daughter and me for Labor Day. Must be within a two-hour drive time and have nice shopping. And it can’t be Palm Springs, San Diego or Santa Barbara.”
Have you thought about Ventura Beach? THEN you can hit the Camarillo Outlets on the way! Ooohhhhh…
“The city’s historic downtown district is picturesque and entertaining with numerous boutiques, antique shops (Ventura is home to more than 125 antique dealers), outdoor cafés, restaurants and art galleries. Meanwhile, other outdoor activities, such as biking on the town’s 13-mile coastal trail or hiking at the Channel Islands National Park – located a mere 14 miles offshore – tempt the true outdoor enthusiasts. Casual surf wear is welcome almost anywhere you go in town, so hang loose and head for the beach in Ventura.”
You got it!!!
