Seal Beach, California

We arrived at Seabreeze RV Park last Monday with no problems. We last visited Seabreeze RV Park in February 2015 and it is a very nice, well maintained campground. We were surprised to see them mowing the grass in December.

 

The seaside town of Seal Beach is very interesting, especially the downtown area with its quaint shops and restaurants. We enjoyed eating at “The Hangout” grill, right across the street from the city beaches and its pier.

On Friday we went to Universal Studios Hollywood, driving north through central Los Angeles to get there. It was a fun day and we went to the Walking Dead attraction first. It was similar to a haunted house and I jumped when a zombie came from my side and surprised me in the dark. We also enjoyed the Universal Animal Actors show, the Special Effects show, the Jurassic Park ride, the hour-long Universal Studios tour on a tram, and finally the Harry Potter village.

 

We left Universal Studios around 5:30PM and it took us over 2-hours to drive the 37-miles back to Seal Beach.

 

We left Seal Beach this morning and headed up the infamous I-405, west to US101 through Ventura and Santa Barbara to Lompoc and Vandenberg AFB. The 190-mile drive wasn’t too bad on a Sunday morning. The 6-lane wide I-405 is always a sea of headlights and brake lights during the week.

Our only concern was finding a truck stop or gas station along the way big enough to pull into and refuel. We finally found a place in Lompoc. It was the first time we’d bought fuel in 5-weeks as we were leaving Nevada. We’re here at Vandenberg for a week.
