Labor Day Weekend Stay at the Holiday Inn Express in Carpinteria, California
SeeTheGlobe.com Travel Article :: We did not plan our Carpinteria stay ahead of time and had to call hotels in the vicinity just a week in advance. This is no easy feat right before Labor Day. This weekend must be one of the most popular times of the year in this coastal region. Everything gets completely booked. When searching online, there were no available rooms. Ventura and Santa Barbara were the closest places with some vacancies. We called and called every day ... and ... Two days before the weekend we landed a room at the Holiday Inn Express in Carpinteria. Their booking web site showed no vacancies but we were persistent in calling and it paid off. The price we paid was probably ten to twenty percent more than if we had booked on time but we just had to live with it. We checked in on the Saturday evening before Labor Day.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.seetheglobe.com/modules/wfreviews/singlefile.php?cid=9&lid=1138">Rate and Review : Labor Day Weekend Stay at the Holiday Inn Express in Carpinteria, California</a>

Quick Lunch Stop at Sushi Boy on Hawthorne Blvd in Torrance, CA
SeeTheGlobe.com Travel Article :: Ever since we first noticed the first Sushi Boy store opening in our neighborhood we were curious to visit it and try their sushi goodies. The outside appearance of the restaurant was attractive and more pleasing than most standard small food franchise shops. They have blended Japanese design elements into a modern looking boxy structure. The official web site states that there are now twelve Sushi Boys in Southern California and about half are in the South Bay (Los Angeles). This past week we finally ate lunch at their Torrance location. Parking was freely available behind the restaurant. <br /><br /><a href="http://www.seetheglobe.com/modules/wfreviews/singlefile.php?cid=6&lid=1134">Rate and Review : Quick Lunch Stop at Sushi Boy on Hawthorne Blvd in Torrance, CA</a>
