Day 6 of Pick Four blog hop

Hello everybody.  I'm sorry we had to get up so early again this but we have a long journey again to get from Barb on the moon to SewCalGal, who lives in Southern California.  At least it should be a bit warmer there than it was on the moon.
I have managed to find out a few things about the area we are visiting today, apart from the fact that it is the home of movies and Disneyland.
  • Southern California is also important to the world of yachting and the San Diego Yacht Club held the America's Cup from 1988 - 1995, during which time it also hosted the America's Cup races three times.
  • The area with the highest population is Orange County which has approximately 1500 people per km² and the lowest populated is Imperial County with just 15 people per km². 
  • Death Valley features the lowest, the hottest and the driest locations in N America. 
  • If California was a country, it would be the 8th largest economy in the world.
Don't forget, there is also a copy of my book to be won while we are visiting SewCalGal, but before we arrive at SewCalGal's, we're stopping for a meal at a restaurant called the Stinking Rose, where they boast that we "season our garlic with food".

Just before we all get off the tour bus can I just remind you of our trip itinerary,
