We flew to SNA (Orange County airport) Saturday
to visit Clayton for a week at BIOLA University, where he is a freshman in the
Music Conservatory. We were going to
drive but then Alaska Airlines had a GREAT fare using FF miles and so, even renting
a car, we will save about $400 of traveling costs – not to say the driving
hours.
We came two days early in order to see our friends who just moved to San
Jancinto …the inland more desert area vs the more coastal California area. Then we drove to La Mirada today around noon
(to avoid the traffic) in order to see Clayton this evening during his band
practice. We met the band director and
saw a fabulous rehearsal!
Joan was very concerned about driving in LA; all we hear about is how
bad the traffic is. Then our friends
noted that the TV shows so many accidents caused by people coming up the wrong
way on ramps. Oops!
But driving over to La Mirada today, we had no problems. We watched the traffic on the iPhone map and
took some surface roads in some places.
