Good advice thanks! I'm "looking", but only buying if it's "doable"
We are planning to go to the Zoo and I saw this.
Ah yes, the wonderful 6 lane freeways of Southern California, always under construction too!Good advice thanks! I'm "looking", but only buying if it's "doable"
"Bonsai Pavilion was opened at The San Diego Zoo Safari Park (formerly The Wild Animal Park) above the first pavilion and four times larger. The new features included a waterfall, three bridges, and a meandering stream in a tranquil, secured setting. This allows for more bonsai exhibits as well as an expanded work area."
I did hear the traffic is awful and I have been to Orange county for two weeks (training for work) back in 2009, so it's been awhile, but I still remember the six lane freeways.

Nice. That's both of these are not to far away from our Santa Monica stay. I saw California Bonsai Studio on my google searches but wasn't sure if it was worth the drive. Now I know it is. Thanks
That looks really nice. thank you.
I think Yamaguchi Bonsai nursery is one of the nurseries in Sawtelle that Nao is talking about. I have a friend who went there while he was out there on business and picked up a very nice styled juniper. Can't get that kind of thing on the east coast. A trip though the Yelp review pictures and you can see a lot of their bonsai...
Well thanks to both of you. I see a lot of google maps in my future.
No. I did not know that. I was looking at the Safari Park and almost booked a tour yesterday. I have a lot of looking to do still. Thank you both!SS 2020 Safari
The San Diego Bonsai Club in cooperation with the San Diego Zoo Safari Park maintains a permanent collection of bonsai in a pavilion at the park. The trees have been donated to the club pavilion by...www.sandiegobonsaiclub.com
The first one looks nice, appointment only may be a problem, & the second one looks good as well. Thanks.
My fave is Leo Carrillo State Beach, just up the coast from Malibu.
I was driving north to northeast of Malibu once a few years ago. Well east of Thousand Oaks….toward the Hidden Hills area. Over the hills and through the rocky wooded areas for several miles and landed in a community, a culture group really, that seemed stuck in time…or they literally banded together and stayed in one timeline. I landed in what could best be described as a hippie community from the 1960s. Complete with the loose cotton shirts, beads, rope belts, worn leather sandals, headbands, music playing, relaxed…and….wow man, are you from the city? It looked like they just left Woodstock and created a town. I wish I could remember the location name. Definitely fit the title of a blast from the past. Time stood still there.
