Heard a horrific story from a coworker this morning about his traffic experience yesterday. It actually took him 3 hours to get home last night! From what the news is reporting, it looks like today will be even worse.
Since I am taking a co-worker to John-Wayne Airport later today so she can catch her flight up north, I am basically stuck here in Irvine until 3:30PM. I don’t even want to imagine how the traffic would look like on the freeway by that time. If I leave Irvine by 4:00PM, can I get home by 7:00PM?? To combat this problem, I am going to do a little adventure! I’ve decided to go LOCAL for my weekly drive back to SG.
My planned route:
Starting at John Wayne Airport, I will drive west on McArthur (And of course, have my sun roof down and watch the planes take off). Once I hit Harbor Blvd. I will turn north and drive through the lovely Santa Ana with more doors securely locked and windowed rolled all the way up (I am debating if I should blast Gangsta rap out loud just to blend in), on the way, I will also stop by Alberto’s Taco for some refueling, they make the best damn Taco in the world. Okay, back on the planned journey, I will continue north on Harbor, driving through Santa Ana, Garden Grove (where I will make a pit stop to unload), and Fullerton, and eventually, I will hit Commonwealth near where my professional career started (maybe I’ll drop by the building just to see how it looks). And then I will turn left on commonwealth then Alondra Blvd to see all the old industrial center of LA before heading north again on Lakewood/Rosemead Blvd. Keep on going north and north, thru the neighborhood of Pico Rivera where there is a park pack full of people playing soccer ( I am sure I’ll see some matches there), the lakes of legg lake where I use to fish as a kid, and the terrible road conditions pass the 10 fwy and then finally the Santa Anita race rack and the lovely Huntington Dr. And then! I’ll be home! In two hours time!! (if my car holds up).
Happy Driving’
