do u know why it seems like a far miracle to go to California?




BlueJr


I have always wished to go there but everything I try to do in getting there backfires. I first wanted to live there but realized that it was going to cost me $2,000 just to move there and then be broke. Visiting there was going to cost me well over $1000..so any advice on what I should do in getting the good deals on either moving or visiting california by next year?


Answer
I advice you to take the Amtrak for a cheaper alternative than the plane. Here, you will see a better view of the places you had passed by. The chairs are comfortable & comfort rooms are like the ones found in the airplanes. You can buy food over there in the train.
I had been to California for almost 6 months. I had stayed in different places. I was just lucky that I had friends & relatives around who adopted me for a certain time. I started in San Francisco, cost of living is higher, tax is highest at 8.5%, however, it has its advantages. People who live here dont bring their cars since parking is hard & expensive. Even those who work here & live in the nearby Contra Costa County take the BART & leave their cars in the BART station. A cousin used to live here x 30 years without a car. you can ride the Muni Bus & transfer from 1 bus to another within time frame without paying again. A studio type would cost almost $1,000.00. In the Contra Costa County like Concord, Walnut Creek, Pittsburgh, rental is almost the same, however, it is harder to take a ride if you dont have a car.
In San Diego, there are trolleys and buses but there are other areas not accessible to this. In National City rental is lower at $700++ for a 2 rooms bedroom, dining room, living room. It is just across the Paradise Valley Hospital. In La Jolla where University of California, San Diego, UCSD is located, rental can be $1,000 for a 2 room condominium unit. Students share in their rental, my nieces together with their classmates had rented a house, costing them $400.00 each month. Try riding the trolley & you will be able to see the whole of San Diego when you ride all the trolley cars. There are buses at most of the trolley stations. I had 2 maps of San Diego which is not that complete. I had only appreciated the whole of San Diego after riding the trolley. There is a more complete version of their map , however, it is to tiny to be seen by the naked eye. You need a magnifying lens to read it. Even residents of these place doesnt know their surroundings or downtown well.They get lost!
In El Centro, rental is lower, it is almost 1 hour away from San Diego. My cousins place here has 3 bedrooms, 2 comfort rooms, a big living room, with dining & a big backyard, rental is $900.00++. The disadvantage is that it is a bit hotter here compared to the rest of California. However, they have a 24 hour Walmart here.
I had been to Irvine & Alisso Viejo in Orange County. This is a nice community too. Travel from San Diego is via the Amtrak.
LA is too crowded, too hot! It makes you feel that you are going to have a headache on your way to work because it is too congested. There are places where transportation is 24 hours like in Hollywood. You have to see houses shared by 4-5 people to make your rental lower. Travel from San Diego to LA can be via Greyhound which is cheaper & Amtrak.
Camarillo is in Ventura County near Oxnard, Simi Valley & Malibu. I had seen the biggest houses here in all the places I had been. I had been to a millionaires house here. There are gated places here. The environment is too quiet but nice atmosphere. It is about an hour's drive to LA. I had travelled from San Diego to Camarillo via the Amtrak.
I had been to different places to determine in what community I would fit well. I had loved Camarillo best! Nice weather, not too crowded, near LA & accessible to San Diego, LA via Amtrak.

Do restaurants own the sidewalks?

I was in San Francisco today, and down at Fisherman's Wharf, my father and I bought some food from a little street-side booth. There were lots of tables for sitting, but they were all packed, so we kept walking down the wharf and came across a restaurant that had a lot of tables, and not one customer eating outside. So, we sat down and started eating. We're eating for about 20 minutes, and eventually one of the waiters comes out and shouts, "hey, these aren't picnic tables, this is a restaurant. You need to leave." I just nodded and said okay. I was a little ticked, so I took my sweet time preparing to leave. Eventually I just forgot about it, but then I got to thinking... how can they tell me to leave the sidewalk? My dad and I discussed it, and he pointed out that technically the city owns the sidewalks. I said perhaps they have permits, but I actually have no idea.

So, was it legal of them to kick us out?



Answer
don't know about San Fransisco but in many places businesses are responsible for sidewalks(keeping them clear of snow, trash et-cetra and restaurants have use for outside dining) the city does maintenance. the business definitely owns the tables and chairs and could ask you not to sit in them. you would have to check with the city to find out the legality of it in San Fransisco. since it was a waiter and not management it may be that legally they could not demand you not use the table or it could be that they could demand it and as such the management knew they did not have to be involved. contact city mayor/manager for more information.
