Holidays

The Californian cruise was superb.. my favourite stop was San Diego and I’d love to have more time there.. The two Nimitz Class Carriers in the harbour were very impressive and I’d love to have more time to have eaten in the large Italian community there.. We may go back sometime
I would take 1 day in San Diego over a week in LA. Its a great place and I've got the same opinion on New York, I thought Boston was far better. But its all about experiences or what the travel brochures tell you . I was very surprised to hear about the drug problems in vancouver which is a place I've not been but thought I was missing out as it looks beautiful in the world's best cities list
 
Stoke-on-Trent. A place with fascinating locals and unusual customs, as well as their unique cuisine, the oatcake. Sadly, Cobridge Dog track, which was their answer to Versailles, is no longer there.
 
What's the best area for beauty, harbour, restaurants etc, not too bothered about beaches, prefer a harbour with restaurants around it

Padstow in North Cornwall is a busy harbour and has good restaurants especially sea food. Port Isaac is a beautiful little harbour and Tintagel is always worth a visit. The castle is a bit of a walk but worth it. Porth Leven on south coast is nice too.
We also used to go to Marazion near Penzance which has stunning views of St Michaels Mount.
Roseland Peninsula is a nice drive too.
We just explored and found loads of nice coves and villages.
 
I think i will give Lanzarote a visit at the end of January, never been before. Is it ok for a four night stay?

Just got back from there last Sunday. Went to Puerta Del Carmen. If you like plenty of restaurants and bars, then that's the place to go. Not too many young people either. Watched the Southampton game in Arthur's Bar which is full of City flags and memorabilia. It's the base for the Lanzarote official supporters club. As for a 4 night stay, we found that 7 days weren't quite enough, but I suppose it depends on what you are looking for.
