It took 2 hours driving to the camp site from Santa Ana; they only allow 2 cars per site (site #20, #25) and max of 8 people per site.\u00a0 They charged $56.00 for 2 nites\/camp site, plus we have to pay entrance fee of $5.00 a day (if we visit friends for only 15 minutes then they won’t charge).<\/p>\n

Besides trees and dirt; there’s nothing else. Oh there are LOTS of small bees which gather around our foods and us while we were eating which is really annoying.\u00a0 They only came when there’s foods on the table, especially meat.\u00a0 Did not know bees like meat!<\/p>\n

After lunch and a short nap, we went to the Lake Arrowhead village: there’s an outlet around the lake with a few brand names like Coach, Bass, etc. There’s also Mac Donald, Subway and a few coffee shops.\u00a0 We stopped at McDonald for restroom break and had some ice cream.<\/p>\n

Ice cream tasted so good in a hot summer afternoon<\/p><\/div>\n

Lake Arrowhead Village<\/p><\/div>\n

At the end of the village there’s a small playground for kids: a go-kart, merry-go-round and little train which goes around the village.\u00a0 There are other water activities like Kayaking, Cruise around the lake ($16.00\/adult for 50 minutes ride) , jet ski, etc.<\/p>\n

We left the village around 5:30Pm after 2 hours of walking around the village to head back to the camp site which is only 3 miles away. At this time the shops are starting to close up, not sure if it’s because Sunday that they close early?<\/p>\n

We had dinner here (white rice with shrimp scampi, bamboo soup) before leaving the camp and headed home.\u00a0 We got home about 8PM; tired but had fun!<\/p>\n
