Visitors can drive through the park and stop at lookouts, hike short trails, see the ruins of the valley's former industry, and even paddle in the shallow Badwater Lake, if there is any water in the lake at that time.

San Diego Vacation Travel Guide | Expedia
Welcome to San Diego, often called the birthplace of California.
Start your San Diego tour with a stop in Old Town, a historic park filled with buildings dating back to the 1820s. If you want something a little livelier, go a few miles south to check out the Gaslamp District, full of Victorian-era architecture and a thriving bar and club scene. Bringing the kids with you, or looking for a more sedate afternoon? Stop by the San Diego Zoo and spend some time with the many animals taking up residence there – including some of the few pandas outside of China.
Explore San Diego’s ties to the sea by touring the U.S.S. Midway, Navy Pier, and Maritime Museum. From there, it’s just a skip across the bay to Coronado, where you can lay out in the sun and soak up some rays in a quiet beach town.
Round out your day with a trip to “the jewel,” better known as La Jolla, and indulge in some of the best seafood and Mexican food you’ll find anywhere. Don’t forget to say “Hi” to the sea lions.

Driving Downtown - Boston 4K - USA
Driving Downtown - Boston Massachusetts USA - Episode 23.
Starting Point: Northern Avenue & D Street .
Boston is the capital and largest city[8] of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts in the United States. Boston also served as the county seat of Suffolk County until Massachusetts disbanded county government in 1999. The city proper covers 48 square miles (124 km2) with an estimated population of 667,137 in 2015,[9] making it the largest city in New England and the 24th largest city in the United States.[2] The city is the economic and cultural anchor of a substantially larger metropolitan area called Greater Boston, home to 4.7 million people and the tenth-largest metropolitan statistical area in the country.[5] Greater Boston as a commuting region is home to 8.1 million people, making it the sixth-largest combined statistical area in the United States.[10]
One of the oldest cities in the United States, Boston was founded on the Shawmut Peninsula in 1630 by Puritan settlers from England.[11][12] It was the scene of several key events of the American Revolution, such as the Boston Massacre, the Boston Tea Party, the Battle of Bunker Hill, and the Siege of Boston. Upon American independence from Great Britain, the city continued to be an important port and manufacturing hub, as well as a center for education and culture.[13][14] Through land reclamation and municipal annexation, Boston has expanded beyond the original peninsula. Its rich history attracts many tourists, with Faneuil Hall alone drawing over 20 million visitors per year.[15] Boston's many firsts include the United States' first public school, Boston Latin School (1635),[16] first subway system (1897),[17] and first public park (1634).
The area's many colleges and universities make Boston an international center of higher education,[18] including law, medicine, engineering, and business, and the city is considered to be a world leader in innovation and entrepreneurship.[19][20] Boston's economic base also includes finance,[21] professional and business services, biotechnology, information technology, and government activities.[22] Households in the city claim the highest average rate of philanthropy in the United States;[23] businesses and institutions rank among the top in the country for environmental sustainability and investment.[24] The city has one of the highest costs of living in the United States,[25] though it remains high on world livability rankings.[26]
Economy
A global city, Boston is placed among the top 30 most economically powerful cities in the world.[139] Encompassing $363 billion, the Greater Boston metropolitan area has the sixth-largest economy in the country and 12th-largest in the world.
Tourism also composes a large part of Boston's economy, with 21.2 million domestic and international visitors spending $8.3 billion in 2011;[147] excluding visitors from Canada and Mexico, over 1.4 million international tourists visited Boston in 2014, with those from China and the United Kingdom leading the list.[148] Boston's status as a state capital as well as the regional home of federal agencies has rendered law and government to be another major component of the city's economy.[35][149] The city is a major seaport along the United States' East Coast and the oldest continuously operated industrial and fishing port in the Western Hemisphere.

LARGEST Market in USA
►iPhone XS MAX◄ 4K
Located in the heart of the north-east San Jose in California, the San Jose Flea Market is one of the largest open-air flea market in the U.S., also known as Berryessa Flea Market, due to its location at Berryessa Road in San José, California. George Bumb Sr. created the market back in 1960, after he visited Paris and got inspired by France’s capital city’s flea market (and particularly the Saint Ouen Flea Market), as well as a few swap meets in Los Angeles.
60 years later, the San Jose Flea Market has become a true California landmark with over four million visitors flocking there each year. The 8 miles (13 km) worth of aisles allows for over 2,000 vendors – which makes it almost as big as the iconic Rose Bowl Flea Market and its 2,500 stalls. Vendors at San Jose flea market sell a wide array of goods ranging from jewelry, furniture, collectibles and clothing, to fruit, vegetables, toys, books, cars, car stereo equipment, toiletries, artwork, tools, cookware, and cosmetics, among other things.
With a population and surface larger than some small towns (120 acres), the San Jose Market is a major contributor to the income of many Silicon Valley families.

Belmont Heights: A Wonderful Place to Live!
Hi:
I'm here in Belmont Heights, CA. Belmont Heights was originally a city unto itself. Established in 1908, the City of Long Beach annexed it in 1909, and it's been part of Long Beach ever since.
It is bordered by the ocean on the south, 7th St on the north, Nieto on the east and Redondo Ave on the west. This is a beautiful neighborhood, and lots of people try to find homes to live here. We have wonderful homes! Behind us is a modified California bungalow, often called Craftsman. We also have Mediterranean, Victorian, Spanish colonial, Spanish revival, Tudor revival and neo-traditional. That's the character that attracts people to this area.
You know, we have a very interesting street that I'm looking at here. It's called Vista Avenue. This avenue has been transformed in the last year to be a bike friendly street. They city has spent a lot of time putting in roundabouts every other block. These slow traffic and help to beautify Belmont Heights.
We have some wonderful schools that attract parents and students to this area as well. We have two elementary schools: Lowell and Rogers. We also have two middle schools: Jefferson on 7th St. and Rogers, which is on Nieto. Both of these fine middle schools feed into Wilson High School.
People live living here. They love it because it's such a great residential area, and also because of the great restaurants and stores and the ocean activities that they're able to get involved with.
So come visit, and maybe some day live here. And if you do decide to live here, call me and I'll find that perfect place.
See you next week. Thanks for watching!
Sheila
