Wow! It was amazing! This is the definition of holiday spirit! The houses were decorated…read morebeautifully! Most had themes, and some of the houses really went all out! My favorite was the house with the dog theme, they even had pup Christmas carols playing! Some residents also get involved as part of the experience. One was driving an old style classic truck with a Christmas tree and Santa in the trunk bed. Another was dressed as Santa riding around on a Segway wishing everyone a Merry Christmas. There were a few food vendors, from residents setting up a stand to sell cookies and hot cocoa to food trucks. We started right as the sun set and it was the perfect time as there was less crowd. Although some houses had not turn on their display at that time we were able to see it on the way back to the car. I find it much more enjoyable to walk than to drive. You get an up close view and can really appreciate the efforts that is put into it.

It was overall so clean too with trash cans lining the neighborhood. There is so much foot traffic and car traffic here so that was a surprise! I really loved seeing the canned drive container too! Thanks to the Gemini community for opening their neighborhood to us all! My only suggestion would be portapotties but I'm sure that would be an added expense. Maybe if it was token driven to help offset costs?

If you are looking for a low key beach, in a sleepy town, then this may just be your place. Often…read morethis beach is not too crowded un-like its neighboring beaches. And there is plenty of parking at this beach. The beach features both metered parking lots and street parking. Also there is a lovely pier, that is quite long, to walk down. And as your gaze into the horizon, you can watch the cargo ships in the ocean. One other positive thing about this beach is that is pretty clean, no littered with all the trash that you see other beaches. Lastly, there is a seafood restaurant on the beach in case you get a little hungry or thirsty. Come check it out if you seek relaxation at the beach.

Ending our weekend getaway, we took a stroll down Main Street in Downtown Ventura to do a little…read moreshopping. On a Sunday most stores open at 11am. So, it's best to grab brunch or visit nearby sites like Serra Cross or the Ventura Pier before you shop. There are free parking lots in the area, but by the time we headed over around 11:30 am, all the free spots were taken, so we used the metered parking which was pretty reasonable. Mission San Buenaventura is located on Main Street and offers services. The church is beautiful and Sunday service was very well attended. You'll also find many thrift and antique stores with reasonable prices. I loved that Main Street included a variety of stores and restaurants without including the cheesy and touristy gift shops. We had an enjoyable lunch at Immigrant Son caffe, purchased some sodas at a really cool candy store called Rocket Fizz and visited Very Ventura, a gift shop with a nice collection of Ventura related gifts. I purchased some stickers for my Yeti and a hat.

The best beach! I…read moreuse to work with port Hueneme as a client and I loved every office visit because the beach was so awesome every time. Now as I visit as a (dare I say..."Tourist") I get to enjoy the beach full time. Why is this one the best you ask? Well, it stretches out for about 50 feet before the water gets deep. This makes it perfect for kids who want to play in water but can't swim. Also the parking is only $2 per hour. And it's normally extremely chill here. Never too busy or crowded. The seafood restaurant is also really great and fresh! I love it here and if I was rich I'd buy a home across the street.

There are tons of beaches one can visit, but I had a list of certain ones to check out on this visit. We stayed at the military base for lodging, so this beach was only a few minutes in close proximity. They do have paid parking, just read the signs for payment. We parked on the street for free. There is a bathroom if needed, nothing fancy. We enjoyed the beach, it was crowed at all, which was a plus. There is a wide area to reach the beach, so be prepared to walk abit. I definitely would revisit if I'm in the area.

Please use a more conducive packaging option because the little square styrofoam container once again, leaked all over inside the bag! Every time I get the meatballs to go this happens! It doesn't make sense why you choose to send such a saucy-soupy takeout item in a box that has no seal? A round foil to go pan with the lid that you pinch the sides over would solve this problem easily ‍ I guess I should've mentioned it the last couple times I ordered them to go ‍ my bad... Anyway while I definitely recommend dining here, be mindful should you order takeout, and request your food to be sealed well to avoid leaks.
