Fun things to do in Vernon California with kids

 

Now we have all wanted to go to one of the theme parks in California as they are so much fun but unless you are lucky enough to live nearby or have special access to them you will have to look at cheaper options like camping. Camping is one of the most fun things to do in California with kids. There are some great national parks in California and it does not take much to get to one nearby.

Instead of one of the theme parks in California check out something like Yosemite National Park. It was one of the first wilderness parks in the United States and is best known for its waterfalls. Within its nearly 1,200 square miles, you can find deep valleys, grand meadows, ancient giant sequoia trees, a vast wilderness area, and much, much more. You can learn what makes Yosemite National Park such a special place. These are great places to bond with your family and the fresh air really helps.

    $25 for One Western Horseback-Riding Lesson at Billy Camarillo Cutting Horses in Lake View Terrace (Up to $60 Value)

    Cowboys felt strong bonds with their horses, often sharing scant water rations with them during trips across the desert and interpreting their whinnies as investment advice. Build cross-species friendships with this Groupon.

    $25 for One Western Horseback-Riding Lesson (Up to $60 Value)

    Trainers teach students Western-style riding techniques during lessons that average 60 minutes and are adaptable to riders of beginning to world-champion skill levels. Participants must wear Western boots or leather-soled shoes with a heel during sessions.

    Billy Camarillo Cutting Horses

    Experienced instructors at Billy Camarillo Cutting Horses tailor classes to horses’ dispositions and riders’ goals. Although they offer beginners lessons in basic Western-riding techniques, the staff specializes in training more advanced horsepeople in cutting, a fast-paced equestrian sport in which the rider attempts to separate a single cow from the rest of its herd. To facilitate cutting practice, live cattle graze on the premises 95% of the time, and students practice on a mechanical cow famed for its iron-flavored milk during the remaining 5%. The full-service facility also provides room and board for many patrons' steeds, and Billy himself takes in young colts in need of starting.

    • For $1,499, you get a partial Ulthera nonsurgical face-lift, from the chin to the cheeks (a $3,000 value).

A trained staffer performs the roughly 30- to 60-minute laser-free session by using ultrasound technology to generate a detailed image of the face's structure before directing sound waves deep into the dermis, gently heating the tissue to prompt the body's own healing responses to tighten the skin. The FDA-approved system also works to bolster collagen production and rearrange freckles into an attractive toile pattern over the course of the next few months. Clients may experience mild discomfort during treatment but generally require no downtime.

    Using a method called Cryolipolysis, the Zeltiq CoolSculpting device targets and destroys fat cells that reside in adipose deposits under the skin.

Results continue to appear and improve over the following two to four months. Single treatments can target the abdomen, whereas two treatments can tackle the abs, upper and lower flanks, or both hips, arms, or inner thighs.

    Bella Skin Institute

    Voted a Favorite Chiropractor in the Daily Breeze's 2011 South Bay's Best list, Doctor of Chiropractic Dave Carry of Goodlife Chiropractic garners popularity with advanced technology and a proactive approach. To treat sciatica, headaches, or back pain caused by playing leapfrog in low-ceilinged rooms, the chiropractor first performs a thorough evaluation, including any necessary x-rays and a digital nerve scan with an Insight device to detect areas of nerve disturbance. After reviewing the testing results, Dr. Dave reports his findings and performs the first adjustment to try to correct conga-lining vertebrae. The third visit entails another adjustment and a therapeutic massage customized to the client's needs as recommended by the doctor. The licensed massage therapist targets specific muscles during a session that is both relaxing and healing, like a band-aid that emits ocean sounds.

    Beverly Hills Health Center

    The friendly professionals at Beverly Hills Health Center dedicate themselves to promoting overall well-being in clients through an array of health-bolstering services. Colon-hydrotherapy sessions aim to nix impacted waste, with benefits that include combating bad breath, tempering indigestion, and relieving headaches. After the treatments, which average about 45 minutes, clients tend to feel less fatigued, move more freely, and break dance more convincingly. Infrared-sauna treatments are available to supplement the hydrotherapy, enveloping the body in rays that penetrate the skin with up to 1.5 inches of depth. The saunas release toxins through the skin, thereby cleansing the system and buoying whole-body health. Detoxifying foot spas have much the same effect, drawing toxins through the feet, and the staff's trained nutritionist can help prevent toxins from entering the body in the first place. Beverly Hills Health's chiropractics relieve tension and align spines without requiring patients to sleep in a straitjacket and Swedish, deep-tissue, and prenatal massages relax muscular tissue and minds for 30 minutes or one hour. Additionally, Zerona treatments amplify health by eliminating adipose fatty tissue without surgery or wounds.

    Organic, semi-permanent makeup accentuates facial features, and bold brushstrokes paint exotic scenes behind pedicure chairs and above gleaming marble countertops. The scent of potted lilies rides waves of eucalyptus-infused steam past the strawberry-blond wooden slats that border a sauna. The spa's private showers are ideal for relaxing cleanup or tearful regrets about taking cotton candy in the shower.

The sophisticated faux flying machine immerses students in a fully realized aviation experience with an enclosed cockpit and 180-degree views on five 60-inch televisions, meaning pilots can see sky and runway, but not conga lines happening in the first-class aisle. Using a vast assortment of avionics equipment, the simulator accurately depicts a large number of scenarios that would be difficult and dangerous to replicate on a regular flight. During simulated night flights, cockpit instruments glow an electric blue as pilots navigate the difficulties of landing in the dark and matching pairs of black and electric blue socks.

    $25 for a Tour of Hollywood or Star Homes from Another Side of Los Angeles Tours ($75 Value)

    A house says a lot about its owner, as evidenced by Galileo’s solar-system bed sheets and Lincoln’s vast collection of presidential action figures. Take a peek inside the mind of a famed figure with today’s Groupon: for $25, you get a two-hour Hollywood or Star Homes tour from Another Side of Los Angeles Tours (a $75 value). Both tours leave from the home office on South La Cienega Boulevard with up to 15 people per trip, the Hollywood tour departing at 9 a.m. and 1 p.m. and the Star Homes tour departing at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. Thursday–Sunday.

    Another Side of Los Angeles Tours brings travelers and curious locals together for informative jaunts past LA's famous sites, earning votes as a top LA tour company by TripAdvisor reviewers. Patrons pile into a van or mini bus piloted by their guide for the Hollywood tour, which cruises by famed showbiz locales including Jim Henson Studios, the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and Grauman's Chinese Theatre to a narrative track of history. While roadsters cruise down Sunset Strip and by the Kodak Theatre's well-known façade, passengers snap photos and begin preparing for future fame by hiding their faces from the paparazzi.

    Alternatively, the Stars Homes tour shepherds sightseers through the streets of Beverly Hills, where behemoth abodes and mansions bordered by palm trees and manicured shrubs contain secrets brought to light by knowledgeable guides. Patrons imbibe complimentary snacks and bottled water as leaders weave tales of intrigue, including how the Hollywood sign was originally designed to be a giant nightlight for actors afraid of the dark.

    The Hollywood Museum

    In The Hollywood Museum, formerly the site of Max Factor's movie makeup studio, patrons meander through a 35,000-square-foot, four-floor maze of more than 10,000 vintage movie props, costumes, and memorabilia. Previously a prohibition-era speakeasy, the subterranean floor beckons patrons down Hannibal Lecter's Silence of the Lambs jail corridor to find spine-tingling treasures such as his muzzling mask. First-floor doors open into Max Factor's restored makeup rooms, which border Cary Grant's Rolls Royce and The Wizard of Oz's red shoes, tempting visitors to slip them on and teleport to Nebraska. Costumes, props, awards, and photos crowd the upper two floors, where Sylvester Stallone's Razzie for "Worst Actor of the Century" sidles up next to threads that once hugged Marilyn Monroe's legendary curves. In time for the 2012 Hollywood award season, the museum's "And the Winner Is…" exhibit highlights nominated movies with costumes and props from such films as Hugo, The Artist, and Harry Potter, and TV shows such as The Walking Dead, as well as a smattering of award statuettes. Other rotating exhibits showcase a script and autographed poster from Slumdog Millionaire, duds modeled by the quick-stepping cast of High School Musical 3, and rows of awards for great TV shows and top-notch spelling bee performances.

    13-Day, 11-Night Tour of China With or Without Airfare from Rewards Travel China Inc.

    Five-City Guided Tour of China from Beijing to Shanghai

    Called one of the seven wonders of the modern world, The Great Wall of China stretches more than 5,000 miles across northern China—longer than the length of the continental United States—snaking through lush forests and snow-capped mountains. To the south, Shanghai boasts more than 17 million people, one of the largest populations in the world, as well as two of the world’s tallest structures—the super-tall Shanghai World Financial Center and the futuristic Oriental Pearl Tower. These sights make up just a few parts of Rewards Travel China's 13-day sightseeing tour, which reveals the massive country and its superlative-worthy attractions in visits to Beijing, Xi’an, Hangzhou, Suzhou, Shanghai, and more.

    Some deal options include roundtrip airfare from Los Angles (LAX), San Francisco (SFO), Seattle (SEA), or Vancouver (YVR) airports. Chinese visa fees ($140) are not included. Departures may be made from other cities for an additional fee.

    Day 1–5: English-speaking guides will escort visitors to their hotels upon arrival in Beijing. A tour of China’s capital city begins the next day, with stops at the colossal Beijing National Stadium (AKA the Bird's Nest), which hosted the 2008 Summer Olympics’ opening ceremony, and the Forbidden City, a palatial fortress where emperors ruled mainland China in isolation for more than 500 years. During the four-day stint in Beijing, tours will also stop at Tiananmen Square and the Temple of Heaven, plus take the 37-mile drive up to Juyongguan to see the Great Wall.

    Day 6–7: Groups take a short flight southwest to the historic city of Xi’an, considered one of the four capitals of the ancient world, alongside Athens, Cairo, and Rome. Here, the Terracotta Horses and Warriors Museum is filled with 8,000 life-size statues of Chinese warriors and horses, built more than 2,200 years ago. Commissioned by Emperor Qin Shi Huang, the statue army was intended to defend him in the afterlife. Afterward, a dancing performance drawn from Tang Dynasty themes entertains while spectators dine from a spread of various dumplings.

    Day 8–10: The tour continues in Hangzhou and Suzhou, nicknamed “Paradise on Earth” and “the Venice of the East,” respectively. Each destination features a UNESCO World Heritage Site: Hangzhou's West Lake, surrounded by pagodas and temples, and Suzhou’s classical gardens.

    Day 11–13: The trip concludes with two days in Shanghai and a visit to the Shanghai Museum to see its collection of ancient Chinese bronze, jade, and calligraphy arts. Shopping on famed Nanjing Road, one of the busiest shopping streets in the world, precedes a dinner cruise on the Huangpu River. Finish the trip with a farewell banquet and a viewing of the Shanghai Acrobatic Show. Guests depart after breakfast the following morning from Shanghai.

    One-Night Stay for Two in an Ocean-View Room or Ocean-View Casita Suite at Terranea Resort in Greater Los Angeles

    Opulent, Eco-Conscious Coastal Resort with Old-World Charm

    When night falls, a constellation of twinkling outdoor fireplaces lights up Terranea Resort’s 100-acre expanse of Pacific Ocean coastline. The fires are a kind of modern-day analog to the encampments of early Spanish explorers who discovered the Palos Verdes Peninsula several hundred years ago. Terranea pays tribute to these first European settlers with a Mediterranean design incorporating red adobe roofs and archways inlaid with colorful mosaic tiles.

    The resort also maintains an eco-friendly focus. Its grounds are comprised of roughly 75% green space, including a 2-mile Discovery Trail affording occasional views of gray whales performing graceful offshore line dances from December to April. The resort's emphasis on nature extends to lushly appointed ocean-view rooms and casita suites, which are accented with golden-hued woods and seashells of all sizes. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors open onto private balconies overlooking the water.

    A 50,000-square-foot glass-walled fitness center and spa offers state-of-the-art cardio equipment as well as daily classes, including yoga and seaside spin sessions, during which participants pedal stationary bikes on an outdoor terrace facing Catalina Island. Golfers tee off on The Links at Terranea, a nine-hole, par 3 course dotted with indigenous California plants. Water lovers loll by one of three ocean-view pools or shoot down the 140-foot water slide.

    Among the resort's many dining options, mar'sel—an upscale, oceanfront eatery—serves flavorful dishes crafted by chef Michael Fiorelli using sustainable methods and local ingredients, including fresh herbs plucked from a garden guests pass on their way in.

    Rancho Palos Verdes, California: Secluded Coastal Town Abounding with Aquatic Adventure

    Nestled in the hills of the Palos Verdes Peninsula, secluded Rancho Palos Verdes is home to expansive estates set on jagged bluffs looming over the coastline. Terranea's Pointe Discovery adventure shop equips visitors for exploring all that the peninsula has to offer, including standup paddleboarding, kayaking, snorkeling, and mermaid speed dating. Fewer than 2 miles from the resort, the Abalone Cove Shoreline Park, a state ecological preserve, boasts pristine tide pools home to sea stars, pointy urchins, and brightly colored anemones.

    Within walking distance of the cove lies Wayfarers Chapel, a structure built from glass and redwoods by Lloyd Wright, son of pioneering architect Frank Lloyd Wright. The Point Vicente Lighthouse also stands nearby. First lit in 1926 as a beacon to mariners aiming to steer clear of rocky shoals, the lighthouse now makes an ideal spot for whale watching.

To facilitate cutting practice, live cattle graze on the premises 95% of the time, and students practice on a mechanical cow famed for its iron-flavored milk during the remaining 5%. The full-service facility also provides room and board for many patrons' steeds, and Billy himself takes in young colts in need of starting.

A trained staffer performs the roughly 30- to 60-minute laser-free session by using ultrasound technology to generate a detailed image of the face's structure before directing sound waves deep into the dermis, gently heating the tissue to prompt the body's own healing responses to tighten the skin. The FDA-approved system also works to bolster collagen production and rearrange freckles into an attractive toile pattern over the course of the next few months. Clients may experience mild discomfort during treatment but generally require no downtime.

    Technology has spurred humanity’s ability to lose weight, whether through trimming fat with body sculpting devices or hiding fatty foods in the VCR. Support the trend with this Groupon.

    Choose Between Two Options

    Using a method called Cryolipolysis, the Zeltiq CoolSculpting device targets and destroys fat cells that reside in adipose deposits under the skin. During each procedure, which lasts about one hour for a single area, the device’s cool tip and vacuum pressure selectively damages fat cells, which are then flushed out of the body via patients’ natural metabolic systems. Results continue to appear and improve over the following two to four months. Single treatments can target the abdomen, whereas two treatments can tackle the abs, upper and lower flanks, or both hips, arms, or inner thighs.

    Bella Skin Institute

    Bella Skin Institute's board-certified dermatologist and dermatological surgeon Dr. Anna Guanche fuses technology into the surgical and nonsurgical aesthetic services her team provides, appearing in the Los Angeles Times and in Elle magazine to impart clients with her cosmetic expertise. Within the facility's four exam rooms and two procedure rooms, restorative-, laser-, and cosmetic-surgery-based treatments unfold at the inanimate hands of advanced equipment such as the GentleLase hair removal system and the SilkPeel dermalinfusion microdermabrasion system. Dr. Guanche prioritizes patient comfort with each procedure her team enacts, eschewing general anesthesia and prefacing elective cosmetic treatments with complimentary consultations.

    Voted a Favorite Chiropractor in the Daily Breeze's 2011 South Bay's Best list, Doctor of Chiropractic Dave Carry of Goodlife Chiropractic garners popularity with advanced technology and a proactive approach. To treat sciatica, headaches, or back pain caused by playing leapfrog in low-ceilinged rooms, the chiropractor first performs a thorough evaluation, including any necessary x-rays and a digital nerve scan with an Insight device to detect areas of nerve disturbance. After reviewing the testing results, Dr. Dave reports his findings and performs the first adjustment to try to correct conga-lining vertebrae. The third visit entails another adjustment and a therapeutic massage customized to the client's needs as recommended by the doctor. The licensed massage therapist targets specific muscles during a session that is both relaxing and healing, like a band-aid that emits ocean sounds.

    Beverly Hills Health Center

    The friendly professionals at Beverly Hills Health Center dedicate themselves to promoting overall well-being in clients through an array of health-bolstering services. Colon-hydrotherapy sessions aim to nix impacted waste, with benefits that include combating bad breath, tempering indigestion, and relieving headaches. After the treatments, which average about 45 minutes, clients tend to feel less fatigued, move more freely, and break dance more convincingly. Infrared-sauna treatments are available to supplement the hydrotherapy, enveloping the body in rays that penetrate the skin with up to 1.5 inches of depth. The saunas release toxins through the skin, thereby cleansing the system and buoying whole-body health. Detoxifying foot spas have much the same effect, drawing toxins through the feet, and the staff's trained nutritionist can help prevent toxins from entering the body in the first place. Beverly Hills Health's chiropractics relieve tension and align spines without requiring patients to sleep in a straitjacket and Swedish, deep-tissue, and prenatal massages relax muscular tissue and minds for 30 minutes or one hour. Additionally, Zerona treatments amplify health by eliminating adipose fatty tissue without surgery or wounds.

    In The Hollywood Museum, formerly the site of Max Factor's movie makeup studio, patrons meander through a 35,000-square-foot, four-floor maze of more than 10,000 vintage movie props, costumes, and memorabilia. Previously a prohibition-era speakeasy, the subterranean floor beckons patrons down Hannibal Lecter's Silence of the Lambs jail corridor to find spine-tingling treasures such as his muzzling mask. First-floor doors open into Max Factor's restored makeup rooms, which border Cary Grant's Rolls Royce and The Wizard of Oz's red shoes, tempting visitors to slip them on and teleport to Nebraska. Costumes, props, awards, and photos crowd the upper two floors, where Sylvester Stallone's Razzie for "Worst Actor of the Century" sidles up next to threads that once hugged Marilyn Monroe's legendary curves. In time for the 2012 Hollywood award season, the museum's "And the Winner Is…" exhibit highlights nominated movies with costumes and props from such films as Hugo, The Artist, and Harry Potter, and TV shows such as The Walking Dead, as well as a smattering of award statuettes. Other rotating exhibits showcase a script and autographed poster from Slumdog Millionaire, duds modeled by the quick-stepping cast of High School Musical 3, and rows of awards for great TV shows and top-notch spelling bee performances.

    13-Day, 11-Night Tour of China With or Without Airfare from Rewards Travel China Inc.

    Five-City Guided Tour of China from Beijing to Shanghai

    Called one of the seven wonders of the modern world, The Great Wall of China stretches more than 5,000 miles across northern China—longer than the length of the continental United States—snaking through lush forests and snow-capped mountains. To the south, Shanghai boasts more than 17 million people, one of the largest populations in the world, as well as two of the world’s tallest structures—the super-tall Shanghai World Financial Center and the futuristic Oriental Pearl Tower. These sights make up just a few parts of Rewards Travel China's 13-day sightseeing tour, which reveals the massive country and its superlative-worthy attractions in visits to Beijing, Xi’an, Hangzhou, Suzhou, Shanghai, and more.

    Some deal options include roundtrip airfare from Los Angles (LAX), San Francisco (SFO), Seattle (SEA), or Vancouver (YVR) airports. Chinese visa fees ($140) are not included. Departures may be made from other cities for an additional fee.

    Day 1–5: English-speaking guides will escort visitors to their hotels upon arrival in Beijing. A tour of China’s capital city begins the next day, with stops at the colossal Beijing National Stadium (AKA the Bird's Nest), which hosted the 2008 Summer Olympics’ opening ceremony, and the Forbidden City, a palatial fortress where emperors ruled mainland China in isolation for more than 500 years. During the four-day stint in Beijing, tours will also stop at Tiananmen Square and the Temple of Heaven, plus take the 37-mile drive up to Juyongguan to see the Great Wall.

    Day 6–7: Groups take a short flight southwest to the historic city of Xi’an, considered one of the four capitals of the ancient world, alongside Athens, Cairo, and Rome. Here, the Terracotta Horses and Warriors Museum is filled with 8,000 life-size statues of Chinese warriors and horses, built more than 2,200 years ago. Commissioned by Emperor Qin Shi Huang, the statue army was intended to defend him in the afterlife. Afterward, a dancing performance drawn from Tang Dynasty themes entertains while spectators dine from a spread of various dumplings.

    Day 8–10: The tour continues in Hangzhou and Suzhou, nicknamed “Paradise on Earth” and “the Venice of the East,” respectively. Each destination features a UNESCO World Heritage Site: Hangzhou's West Lake, surrounded by pagodas and temples, and Suzhou’s classical gardens.

    Day 11–13: The trip concludes with two days in Shanghai and a visit to the Shanghai Museum to see its collection of ancient Chinese bronze, jade, and calligraphy arts. Shopping on famed Nanjing Road, one of the busiest shopping streets in the world, precedes a dinner cruise on the Huangpu River. Finish the trip with a farewell banquet and a viewing of the Shanghai Acrobatic Show. Guests depart after breakfast the following morning from Shanghai.

Each destination features a UNESCO World Heritage Site: Hangzhou's West Lake, surrounded by pagodas and temples, and Suzhou’s classical gardens.

    Day 8–10: The trip concludes with two full days in Shanghai and a visit to The Bund, a waterfront lined with buildings exhibiting art-deco, gothic, and neo-classical architecture. Outside the City God Temple, tourists can shop at more than 100 specialty stores and markets outside, many housed in buildings nearly a century old.

    One-Night Stay for Two in an Ocean-View Room or Ocean-View Casita Suite at Terranea Resort in Greater Los Angeles

    Opulent, Eco-Conscious Coastal Resort with Old-World Charm

    When night falls, a constellation of twinkling outdoor fireplaces lights up Terranea Resort’s 100-acre expanse of Pacific Ocean coastline. The fires are a kind of modern-day analog to the encampments of early Spanish explorers who discovered the Palos Verdes Peninsula several hundred years ago. Terranea pays tribute to these first European settlers with a Mediterranean design incorporating red adobe roofs and archways inlaid with colorful mosaic tiles.

    The resort also maintains an eco-friendly focus. Its grounds are comprised of roughly 75% green space, including a 2-mile Discovery Trail affording occasional views of gray whales performing graceful offshore line dances from December to April. The resort's emphasis on nature extends to lushly appointed ocean-view rooms and casita suites, which are accented with golden-hued woods and seashells of all sizes. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors open onto private balconies overlooking the water.

    A 50,000-square-foot glass-walled fitness center and spa offers state-of-the-art cardio equipment as well as daily classes, including yoga and seaside spin sessions, during which participants pedal stationary bikes on an outdoor terrace facing Catalina Island. Golfers tee off on The Links at Terranea, a nine-hole, par 3 course dotted with indigenous California plants. Water lovers loll by one of three ocean-view pools or shoot down the 140-foot water slide.

    Among the resort's many dining options, mar'sel—an upscale, oceanfront eatery—serves flavorful dishes crafted by chef Michael Fiorelli using sustainable methods and local ingredients, including fresh herbs plucked from a garden guests pass on their way in.

    Rancho Palos Verdes, California: Secluded Coastal Town Abounding with Aquatic Adventure

    Nestled in the hills of the Palos Verdes Peninsula, secluded Rancho Palos Verdes is home to expansive estates set on jagged bluffs looming over the coastline. Terranea's Pointe Discovery adventure shop equips visitors for exploring all that the peninsula has to offer, including standup paddleboarding, kayaking, snorkeling, and mermaid speed dating. Fewer than 2 miles from the resort, the Abalone Cove Shoreline Park, a state ecological preserve, boasts pristine tide pools home to sea stars, pointy urchins, and brightly colored anemones.

    Within walking distance of the cove lies Wayfarers Chapel, a structure built from glass and redwoods by Lloyd Wright, son of pioneering architect Frank Lloyd Wright. The Point Vicente Lighthouse also stands nearby. First lit in 1926 as a beacon to mariners aiming to steer clear of rocky shoals, the lighthouse now makes an ideal spot for whale watching.

    Cowboys felt strong bonds with their horses, often sharing scant water rations with them during trips across the desert and interpreting their whinnies as investment advice. Build cross-species friendships with this Groupon.

    $25 for One Western Horseback-Riding Lesson (Up to $60 Value)

    Trainers teach students Western-style riding techniques during lessons that average 60 minutes and are adaptable to riders of beginning to world-champion skill levels. Participants must wear Western boots or leather-soled shoes with a heel during sessions.

    Billy Camarillo Cutting Horses

    Experienced instructors at Billy Camarillo Cutting Horses tailor classes to horses’ dispositions and riders’ goals. Although they offer beginners lessons in basic Western-riding techniques, the staff specializes in training more advanced horsepeople in cutting, a fast-paced equestrian sport in which the rider attempts to separate a single cow from the rest of its herd. To facilitate cutting practice, live cattle graze on the premises 95% of the time, and students practice on a mechanical cow famed for its iron-flavored milk during the remaining 5%. The full-service facility also provides room and board for many patrons' steeds, and Billy himself takes in young colts in need of starting.

    • For $1,499, you get a partial Ulthera nonsurgical face-lift, from the chin to the cheeks (a $3,000 value).

A trained staffer performs the roughly 30- to 60-minute laser-free session by using ultrasound technology to generate a detailed image of the face's structure before directing sound waves deep into the dermis, gently heating the tissue to prompt the body's own healing responses to tighten the skin. The FDA-approved system also works to bolster collagen production and rearrange freckles into an attractive toile pattern over the course of the next few months. Clients may experience mild discomfort during treatment but generally require no downtime.

Single treatments can target the abdomen, whereas two treatments can tackle the abs, upper and lower flanks, or both hips, arms, or inner thighs.

After reviewing the testing results, Dr. Dave reports his findings and performs the first adjustment to try to correct conga-lining vertebrae. The third visit entails another adjustment and a therapeutic massage customized to the client's needs as recommended by the doctor. The licensed massage therapist targets specific muscles during a session that is both relaxing and healing, like a band-aid that emits ocean sounds.

Infrared-sauna treatments are available to supplement the hydrotherapy, enveloping the body in rays that penetrate the skin with up to 1.5 inches of depth. The saunas release toxins through the skin, thereby cleansing the system and buoying whole-body health. Detoxifying foot spas have much the same effect, drawing toxins through the feet, and the staff's trained nutritionist can help prevent toxins from entering the body in the first place. Beverly Hills Health's chiropractics relieve tension and align spines without requiring patients to sleep in a straitjacket and Swedish, deep-tissue, and prenatal massages relax muscular tissue and minds for 30 minutes or one hour. Additionally, Zerona treatments amplify health by eliminating adipose fatty tissue without surgery or wounds.

During simulated night flights, cockpit instruments glow an electric blue as pilots navigate the difficulties of landing in the dark and matching pairs of black and electric blue socks.

    In The Hollywood Museum, formerly the site of Max Factor's movie makeup studio, patrons meander through a 35,000-square-foot, four-floor maze of more than 10,000 vintage movie props, costumes, and memorabilia. Previously a prohibition-era speakeasy, the subterranean floor beckons patrons down Hannibal Lecter's Silence of the Lambs jail corridor to find spine-tingling treasures such as his muzzling mask. First-floor doors open into Max Factor's restored makeup rooms, which border Cary Grant's Rolls Royce and The Wizard of Oz's red shoes, tempting visitors to slip them on and teleport to Nebraska. Costumes, props, awards, and photos crowd the upper two floors, where Sylvester Stallone's Razzie for "Worst Actor of the Century" sidles up next to threads that once hugged Marilyn Monroe's legendary curves. In time for the 2012 Hollywood award season, the museum's "And the Winner Is…" exhibit highlights nominated movies with costumes and props from such films as Hugo, The Artist, and Harry Potter, and TV shows such as The Walking Dead, as well as a smattering of award statuettes. Other rotating exhibits showcase a script and autographed poster from Slumdog Millionaire, duds modeled by the quick-stepping cast of High School Musical 3, and rows of awards for great TV shows and top-notch spelling bee performances.

    Five-City Guided Tour of China from Beijing to Shanghai

    Called one of the seven wonders of the modern world, The Great Wall of China stretches more than 5,000 miles across northern China—longer than the length of the continental United States—snaking through lush forests and snow-capped mountains. To the south, Shanghai boasts more than 17 million people, one of the largest populations in the world, as well as two of the world’s tallest structures—the super-tall Shanghai World Financial Center and the futuristic Oriental Pearl Tower. These sights make up just a few parts of Rewards Travel China's 13-day sightseeing tour, which reveals the massive country and its superlative-worthy attractions in visits to Beijing, Xi’an, Hangzhou, Suzhou, Shanghai, and more.

    Some deal options include roundtrip airfare from Los Angles (LAX), San Francisco (SFO), Seattle (SEA), or Vancouver (YVR) airports. Chinese visa fees ($140) are not included. Departures may be made from other cities for an additional fee.

    Day 1–5: English-speaking guides will escort visitors to their hotels upon arrival in Beijing. A tour of China’s capital city begins the next day, with stops at the colossal Beijing National Stadium (AKA the Bird's Nest), which hosted the 2008 Summer Olympics’ opening ceremony, and the Forbidden City, a palatial fortress where emperors ruled mainland China in isolation for more than 500 years. During the four-day stint in Beijing, tours will also stop at Tiananmen Square and the Temple of Heaven, plus take the 37-mile drive up to Juyongguan to see the Great Wall.

    Day 6–7: Groups take a short flight southwest to the historic city of Xi’an, considered one of the four capitals of the ancient world, alongside Athens, Cairo, and Rome. Here, the Terracotta Horses and Warriors Museum is filled with 8,000 life-size statues of Chinese warriors and horses, built more than 2,200 years ago. Commissioned by Emperor Qin Shi Huang, the statue army was intended to defend him in the afterlife. Afterward, a dancing performance drawn from Tang Dynasty themes entertains while spectators dine from a spread of various dumplings.

    Day 8–10: The tour continues in Hangzhou and Suzhou, nicknamed “Paradise on Earth” and “the Venice of the East,” respectively. Each destination features a UNESCO World Heritage Site: Hangzhou's West Lake, surrounded by pagodas and temples, and Suzhou’s classical gardens.

    Day 11–13: The trip concludes with two days in Shanghai and a visit to the Shanghai Museum to see its collection of ancient Chinese bronze, jade, and calligraphy arts. Shopping on famed Nanjing Road, one of the busiest shopping streets in the world, precedes a dinner cruise on the Huangpu River. Finish the trip with a farewell banquet and a viewing of the Shanghai Acrobatic Show. Guests depart after breakfast the following morning from Shanghai.

    One-Night Stay for Two in an Ocean-View Room or Ocean-View Casita Suite at Terranea Resort in Greater Los Angeles

    Opulent, Eco-Conscious Coastal Resort with Old-World Charm

    When night falls, a constellation of twinkling outdoor fireplaces lights up Terranea Resort’s 100-acre expanse of Pacific Ocean coastline. The fires are a kind of modern-day analog to the encampments of early Spanish explorers who discovered the Palos Verdes Peninsula several hundred years ago. Terranea pays tribute to these first European settlers with a Mediterranean design incorporating red adobe roofs and archways inlaid with colorful mosaic tiles.

    The resort also maintains an eco-friendly focus. Its grounds are comprised of roughly 75% green space, including a 2-mile Discovery Trail affording occasional views of gray whales performing graceful offshore line dances from December to April. The resort's emphasis on nature extends to lushly appointed ocean-view rooms and casita suites, which are accented with golden-hued woods and seashells of all sizes. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors open onto private balconies overlooking the water.

    A 50,000-square-foot glass-walled fitness center and spa offers state-of-the-art cardio equipment as well as daily classes, including yoga and seaside spin sessions, during which participants pedal stationary bikes on an outdoor terrace facing Catalina Island. Golfers tee off on The Links at Terranea, a nine-hole, par 3 course dotted with indigenous California plants. Water lovers loll by one of three ocean-view pools or shoot down the 140-foot water slide.

    Among the resort's many dining options, mar'sel—an upscale, oceanfront eatery—serves flavorful dishes crafted by chef Michael Fiorelli using sustainable methods and local ingredients, including fresh herbs plucked from a garden guests pass on their way in.

    Rancho Palos Verdes, California: Secluded Coastal Town Abounding with Aquatic Adventure

    Nestled in the hills of the Palos Verdes Peninsula, secluded Rancho Palos Verdes is home to expansive estates set on jagged bluffs looming over the coastline. Terranea's Pointe Discovery adventure shop equips visitors for exploring all that the peninsula has to offer, including standup paddleboarding, kayaking, snorkeling, and mermaid speed dating. Fewer than 2 miles from the resort, the Abalone Cove Shoreline Park, a state ecological preserve, boasts pristine tide pools home to sea stars, pointy urchins, and brightly colored anemones.

    Within walking distance of the cove lies Wayfarers Chapel, a structure built from glass and redwoods by Lloyd Wright, son of pioneering architect Frank Lloyd Wright. The Point Vicente Lighthouse also stands nearby. First lit in 1926 as a beacon to mariners aiming to steer clear of rocky shoals, the lighthouse now makes an ideal spot for whale watching.

Fun things to do in Trinidad California with kids

 

Now we have all wanted to go to one of the theme parks in California as they are so much fun but unless you are lucky enough to live nearby or have special access to them you will have to look at cheaper options like camping. Camping is one of the most fun things to do in California with kids. There are some great national parks in California and it does not take much to get to one nearby.

Instead of one of the theme parks in California check out something like Yosemite National Park. It was one of the first wilderness parks in the United States and is best known for its waterfalls. Within its nearly 1,200 square miles, you can find deep valleys, grand meadows, ancient giant sequoia trees, a vast wilderness area, and much, much more.

    $25 for One Western Horseback-Riding Lesson at Billy Camarillo Cutting Horses in Lake View Terrace (Up to $60 Value)

    Cowboys felt strong bonds with their horses, often sharing scant water rations with them during trips across the desert and interpreting their whinnies as investment advice. Build cross-species friendships with this Groupon.

    $25 for One Western Horseback-Riding Lesson (Up to $60 Value)

    Trainers teach students Western-style riding techniques during lessons that average 60 minutes and are adaptable to riders of beginning to world-champion skill levels. Participants must wear Western boots or leather-soled shoes with a heel during sessions.

    Billy Camarillo Cutting Horses

    Experienced instructors at Billy Camarillo Cutting Horses tailor classes to horses’ dispositions and riders’ goals. Although they offer beginners lessons in basic Western-riding techniques, the staff specializes in training more advanced horsepeople in cutting, a fast-paced equestrian sport in which the rider attempts to separate a single cow from the rest of its herd. To facilitate cutting practice, live cattle graze on the premises 95% of the time, and students practice on a mechanical cow famed for its iron-flavored milk during the remaining 5%. The full-service facility also provides room and board for many patrons' steeds, and Billy himself takes in young colts in need of starting.

    Half- or Full-Face Ulthera Nonsurgical Ultrasound Face-Lift at LA Laser and Skin Center (Up to 53% Off)

    Faces, like freezers, say a lot about a person, such as how often they follow cleaning regimens and how guilty they are of squirreling away decades-old leftovers. Keep appearances fresh with this Groupon to LA Laser and Skin Center. Choose between the following options:

    • For $1,499, you get a partial Ulthera nonsurgical face-lift, from the chin to the cheeks (a $3,000 value).

    Under the expert guidance of Dr. Daniel Taheri, the friendly staff at LA Laser and Skin Center cultivates radiant complexions with noninvasive, cutting-edge Ulthera Ultherapy face-lift treatments that have been featured in press outlets such as Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, In Style, and CBS' The Early Show. A trained staffer performs the roughly 30- to 60-minute laser-free session by using ultrasound technology to generate a detailed image of the face's structure before directing sound waves deep into the dermis, gently heating the tissue to prompt the body's own healing responses to tighten the skin. The FDA-approved system also works to bolster collagen production and rearrange freckles into an attractive toile pattern over the course of the next few months. Clients may experience mild discomfort during treatment but generally require no downtime.

    Using a method called Cryolipolysis, the Zeltiq CoolSculpting device targets and destroys fat cells that reside in adipose deposits under the skin.

Results continue to appear and improve over the following two to four months. Single treatments can target the abdomen, whereas two treatments can tackle the abs, upper and lower flanks, or both hips, arms, or inner thighs.

    Bella Skin Institute

    Voted a Favorite Chiropractor in the Daily Breeze's 2011 South Bay's Best list, Doctor of Chiropractic Dave Carry of Goodlife Chiropractic garners popularity with advanced technology and a proactive approach. To treat sciatica, headaches, or back pain caused by playing leapfrog in low-ceilinged rooms, the chiropractor first performs a thorough evaluation, including any necessary x-rays and a digital nerve scan with an Insight device to detect areas of nerve disturbance. After reviewing the testing results, Dr. Dave reports his findings and performs the first adjustment to try to correct conga-lining vertebrae. The third visit entails another adjustment and a therapeutic massage customized to the client's needs as recommended by the doctor. The licensed massage therapist targets specific muscles during a session that is both relaxing and healing, like a band-aid that emits ocean sounds.

    Beverly Hills Health Center

    The friendly professionals at Beverly Hills Health Center dedicate themselves to promoting overall well-being in clients through an array of health-bolstering services. Colon-hydrotherapy sessions aim to nix impacted waste, with benefits that include combating bad breath, tempering indigestion, and relieving headaches. After the treatments, which average about 45 minutes, clients tend to feel less fatigued, move more freely, and break dance more convincingly. Infrared-sauna treatments are available to supplement the hydrotherapy, enveloping the body in rays that penetrate the skin with up to 1.5 inches of depth. The saunas release toxins through the skin, thereby cleansing the system and buoying whole-body health. Detoxifying foot spas have much the same effect, drawing toxins through the feet, and the staff's trained nutritionist can help prevent toxins from entering the body in the first place. Beverly Hills Health's chiropractics relieve tension and align spines without requiring patients to sleep in a straitjacket and Swedish, deep-tissue, and prenatal massages relax muscular tissue and minds for 30 minutes or one hour. Additionally, Zerona treatments amplify health by eliminating adipose fatty tissue without surgery or wounds.

To cap off a day of relaxation or soothe away the stresses of chauffeuring children from soccer practice to their stockbroker's office, the multitalented staff also doles out mani-pedis and calming massages.

    Organic, semi-permanent makeup accentuates facial features, and bold brushstrokes paint exotic scenes behind pedicure chairs and above gleaming marble countertops. The scent of potted lilies rides waves of eucalyptus-infused steam past the strawberry-blond wooden slats that border a sauna. The spa's private showers are ideal for relaxing cleanup or tearful regrets about taking cotton candy in the shower.

Prepare for any situation with today’s Groupon: for $39, you get a 60-minute flight-simulator session for two at Encore Flight in Van Nuys (a $120 value).

    Encore Flight surrounds aspiring aces and seasoned sky veterans alike with the guidance and equipment to advance their aviation education. During a 60-minute session inside an FAA-approved flight simulator, duos take their seats inside the Precision Flight Controls, Inc. Modular Flight Deck, passing the controls back and forth. The sophisticated faux flying machine immerses students in a fully realized aviation experience with an enclosed cockpit and 180-degree views on five 60-inch televisions, meaning pilots can see sky and runway, but not conga lines happening in the first-class aisle. Using a vast assortment of avionics equipment, the simulator accurately depicts a large number of scenarios that would be difficult and dangerous to replicate on a regular flight. During simulated night flights, cockpit instruments glow an electric blue as pilots navigate the difficulties of landing in the dark and matching pairs of black and electric blue socks.

    The Hollywood Museum

    In The Hollywood Museum, formerly the site of Max Factor's movie makeup studio, patrons meander through a 35,000-square-foot, four-floor maze of more than 10,000 vintage movie props, costumes, and memorabilia. Previously a prohibition-era speakeasy, the subterranean floor beckons patrons down Hannibal Lecter's Silence of the Lambs jail corridor to find spine-tingling treasures such as his muzzling mask. First-floor doors open into Max Factor's restored makeup rooms, which border Cary Grant's Rolls Royce and The Wizard of Oz's red shoes, tempting visitors to slip them on and teleport to Nebraska. Costumes, props, awards, and photos crowd the upper two floors, where Sylvester Stallone's Razzie for "Worst Actor of the Century" sidles up next to threads that once hugged Marilyn Monroe's legendary curves. In time for the 2012 Hollywood award season, the museum's "And the Winner Is…" exhibit highlights nominated movies with costumes and props from such films as Hugo, The Artist, and Harry Potter, and TV shows such as The Walking Dead, as well as a smattering of award statuettes. Other rotating exhibits showcase a script and autographed poster from Slumdog Millionaire, duds modeled by the quick-stepping cast of High School Musical 3, and rows of awards for great TV shows and top-notch spelling bee performances.

    13-Day, 11-Night Tour of China With or Without Airfare from Rewards Travel China Inc.

    Five-City Guided Tour of China from Beijing to Shanghai

    Called one of the seven wonders of the modern world, The Great Wall of China stretches more than 5,000 miles across northern China—longer than the length of the continental United States—snaking through lush forests and snow-capped mountains. To the south, Shanghai boasts more than 17 million people, one of the largest populations in the world, as well as two of the world’s tallest structures—the super-tall Shanghai World Financial Center and the futuristic Oriental Pearl Tower. These sights make up just a few parts of Rewards Travel China's 13-day sightseeing tour, which reveals the massive country and its superlative-worthy attractions in visits to Beijing, Xi’an, Hangzhou, Suzhou, Shanghai, and more.

    Some deal options include roundtrip airfare from Los Angles (LAX), San Francisco (SFO), Seattle (SEA), or Vancouver (YVR) airports. Chinese visa fees ($140) are not included. Departures may be made from other cities for an additional fee.

    Day 1–5: English-speaking guides will escort visitors to their hotels upon arrival in Beijing. A tour of China’s capital city begins the next day, with stops at the colossal Beijing National Stadium (AKA the Bird's Nest), which hosted the 2008 Summer Olympics’ opening ceremony, and the Forbidden City, a palatial fortress where emperors ruled mainland China in isolation for more than 500 years. During the four-day stint in Beijing, tours will also stop at Tiananmen Square and the Temple of Heaven, plus take the 37-mile drive up to Juyongguan to see the Great Wall.

    Day 6–7: Groups take a short flight southwest to the historic city of Xi’an, considered one of the four capitals of the ancient world, alongside Athens, Cairo, and Rome. Here, the Terracotta Horses and Warriors Museum is filled with 8,000 life-size statues of Chinese warriors and horses, built more than 2,200 years ago. Commissioned by Emperor Qin Shi Huang, the statue army was intended to defend him in the afterlife. Afterward, a dancing performance drawn from Tang Dynasty themes entertains while spectators dine from a spread of various dumplings.

    Day 8–10: The tour continues in Hangzhou and Suzhou, nicknamed “Paradise on Earth” and “the Venice of the East,” respectively. Each destination features a UNESCO World Heritage Site: Hangzhou's West Lake, surrounded by pagodas and temples, and Suzhou’s classical gardens.

    Day 11–13: The trip concludes with two days in Shanghai and a visit to the Shanghai Museum to see its collection of ancient Chinese bronze, jade, and calligraphy arts. Shopping on famed Nanjing Road, one of the busiest shopping streets in the world, precedes a dinner cruise on the Huangpu River. Finish the trip with a farewell banquet and a viewing of the Shanghai Acrobatic Show. Guests depart after breakfast the following morning from Shanghai.

    One-Night Stay for Two in an Ocean-View Room or Ocean-View Casita Suite at Terranea Resort in Greater Los Angeles

    Opulent, Eco-Conscious Coastal Resort with Old-World Charm

    When night falls, a constellation of twinkling outdoor fireplaces lights up Terranea Resort’s 100-acre expanse of Pacific Ocean coastline. The fires are a kind of modern-day analog to the encampments of early Spanish explorers who discovered the Palos Verdes Peninsula several hundred years ago. Terranea pays tribute to these first European settlers with a Mediterranean design incorporating red adobe roofs and archways inlaid with colorful mosaic tiles.

    The resort also maintains an eco-friendly focus. Its grounds are comprised of roughly 75% green space, including a 2-mile Discovery Trail affording occasional views of gray whales performing graceful offshore line dances from December to April. The resort's emphasis on nature extends to lushly appointed ocean-view rooms and casita suites, which are accented with golden-hued woods and seashells of all sizes. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors open onto private balconies overlooking the water.

    A 50,000-square-foot glass-walled fitness center and spa offers state-of-the-art cardio equipment as well as daily classes, including yoga and seaside spin sessions, during which participants pedal stationary bikes on an outdoor terrace facing Catalina Island. Golfers tee off on The Links at Terranea, a nine-hole, par 3 course dotted with indigenous California plants. Water lovers loll by one of three ocean-view pools or shoot down the 140-foot water slide.

    Among the resort's many dining options, mar'sel—an upscale, oceanfront eatery—serves flavorful dishes crafted by chef Michael Fiorelli using sustainable methods and local ingredients, including fresh herbs plucked from a garden guests pass on their way in.

    Rancho Palos Verdes, California: Secluded Coastal Town Abounding with Aquatic Adventure

    Nestled in the hills of the Palos Verdes Peninsula, secluded Rancho Palos Verdes is home to expansive estates set on jagged bluffs looming over the coastline. Terranea's Pointe Discovery adventure shop equips visitors for exploring all that the peninsula has to offer, including standup paddleboarding, kayaking, snorkeling, and mermaid speed dating. Fewer than 2 miles from the resort, the Abalone Cove Shoreline Park, a state ecological preserve, boasts pristine tide pools home to sea stars, pointy urchins, and brightly colored anemones.

    Within walking distance of the cove lies Wayfarers Chapel, a structure built from glass and redwoods by Lloyd Wright, son of pioneering architect Frank Lloyd Wright. The Point Vicente Lighthouse also stands nearby. First lit in 1926 as a beacon to mariners aiming to steer clear of rocky shoals, the lighthouse now makes an ideal spot for whale watching.

To facilitate cutting practice, live cattle graze on the premises 95% of the time, and students practice on a mechanical cow famed for its iron-flavored milk during the remaining 5%. The full-service facility also provides room and board for many patrons' steeds, and Billy himself takes in young colts in need of starting.

A trained staffer performs the roughly 30- to 60-minute laser-free session by using ultrasound technology to generate a detailed image of the face's structure before directing sound waves deep into the dermis, gently heating the tissue to prompt the body's own healing responses to tighten the skin. The FDA-approved system also works to bolster collagen production and rearrange freckles into an attractive toile pattern over the course of the next few months. Clients may experience mild discomfort during treatment but generally require no downtime.

    One or Two Zeltiq CoolSculpting Treatments at Bella Skin Institute in Calabasas (Up to 53% Off)

    Technology has spurred humanity’s ability to lose weight, whether through trimming fat with body sculpting devices or hiding fatty foods in the VCR. Support the trend with this Groupon.

    Choose Between Two Options

    Using a method called Cryolipolysis, the Zeltiq CoolSculpting device targets and destroys fat cells that reside in adipose deposits under the skin. During each procedure, which lasts about one hour for a single area, the device’s cool tip and vacuum pressure selectively damages fat cells, which are then flushed out of the body via patients’ natural metabolic systems. Results continue to appear and improve over the following two to four months. Single treatments can target the abdomen, whereas two treatments can tackle the abs, upper and lower flanks, or both hips, arms, or inner thighs.

    Bella Skin Institute

    Bella Skin Institute's board-certified dermatologist and dermatological surgeon Dr. Anna Guanche fuses technology into the surgical and nonsurgical aesthetic services her team provides, appearing in the Los Angeles Times and in Elle magazine to impart clients with her cosmetic expertise. Within the facility's four exam rooms and two procedure rooms, restorative-, laser-, and cosmetic-surgery-based treatments unfold at the inanimate hands of advanced equipment such as the GentleLase hair removal system and the SilkPeel dermalinfusion microdermabrasion system. Dr. Guanche prioritizes patient comfort with each procedure her team enacts, eschewing general anesthesia and prefacing elective cosmetic treatments with complimentary consultations.

    Voted a Favorite Chiropractor in the Daily Breeze's 2011 South Bay's Best list, Doctor of Chiropractic Dave Carry of Goodlife Chiropractic garners popularity with advanced technology and a proactive approach. To treat sciatica, headaches, or back pain caused by playing leapfrog in low-ceilinged rooms, the chiropractor first performs a thorough evaluation, including any necessary x-rays and a digital nerve scan with an Insight device to detect areas of nerve disturbance. After reviewing the testing results, Dr. Dave reports his findings and performs the first adjustment to try to correct conga-lining vertebrae. The third visit entails another adjustment and a therapeutic massage customized to the client's needs as recommended by the doctor. The licensed massage therapist targets specific muscles during a session that is both relaxing and healing, like a band-aid that emits ocean sounds.

Guidelines for healthier eating and helpful supplements accompany each exercise program to create a body-sculpting regimen that has been featured on KCAL's The Best of Southern California.

    Beverly Hills Health Center

    The friendly professionals at Beverly Hills Health Center dedicate themselves to promoting overall well-being in clients through an array of health-bolstering services. Colon-hydrotherapy sessions aim to nix impacted waste, with benefits that include combating bad breath, tempering indigestion, and relieving headaches. After the treatments, which average about 45 minutes, clients tend to feel less fatigued, move more freely, and break dance more convincingly. Infrared-sauna treatments are available to supplement the hydrotherapy, enveloping the body in rays that penetrate the skin with up to 1.5 inches of depth. The saunas release toxins through the skin, thereby cleansing the system and buoying whole-body health. Detoxifying foot spas have much the same effect, drawing toxins through the feet, and the staff's trained nutritionist can help prevent toxins from entering the body in the first place. Beverly Hills Health's chiropractics relieve tension and align spines without requiring patients to sleep in a straitjacket and Swedish, deep-tissue, and prenatal massages relax muscular tissue and minds for 30 minutes or one hour. Additionally, Zerona treatments amplify health by eliminating adipose fatty tissue without surgery or wounds.

To cap off a day of relaxation or soothe away the stresses of chauffeuring children from soccer practice to their stockbroker's office, the multitalented staff also doles out mani-pedis and calming massages.

The scent of potted lilies rides waves of eucalyptus-infused steam past the strawberry-blond wooden slats that border a sauna.

    In The Hollywood Museum, formerly the site of Max Factor's movie makeup studio, patrons meander through a 35,000-square-foot, four-floor maze of more than 10,000 vintage movie props, costumes, and memorabilia. Previously a prohibition-era speakeasy, the subterranean floor beckons patrons down Hannibal Lecter's Silence of the Lambs jail corridor to find spine-tingling treasures such as his muzzling mask. First-floor doors open into Max Factor's restored makeup rooms, which border Cary Grant's Rolls Royce and The Wizard of Oz's red shoes, tempting visitors to slip them on and teleport to Nebraska. Costumes, props, awards, and photos crowd the upper two floors, where Sylvester Stallone's Razzie for "Worst Actor of the Century" sidles up next to threads that once hugged Marilyn Monroe's legendary curves. In time for the 2012 Hollywood award season, the museum's "And the Winner Is…" exhibit highlights nominated movies with costumes and props from such films as Hugo, The Artist, and Harry Potter, and TV shows such as The Walking Dead, as well as a smattering of award statuettes. Other rotating exhibits showcase a script and autographed poster from Slumdog Millionaire, duds modeled by the quick-stepping cast of High School Musical 3, and rows of awards for great TV shows and top-notch spelling bee performances.

    13-Day, 11-Night Tour of China With or Without Airfare from Rewards Travel China Inc.

    Five-City Guided Tour of China from Beijing to Shanghai

    Called one of the seven wonders of the modern world, The Great Wall of China stretches more than 5,000 miles across northern China—longer than the length of the continental United States—snaking through lush forests and snow-capped mountains. To the south, Shanghai boasts more than 17 million people, one of the largest populations in the world, as well as two of the world’s tallest structures—the super-tall Shanghai World Financial Center and the futuristic Oriental Pearl Tower. These sights make up just a few parts of Rewards Travel China's 13-day sightseeing tour, which reveals the massive country and its superlative-worthy attractions in visits to Beijing, Xi’an, Hangzhou, Suzhou, Shanghai, and more.

    Some deal options include roundtrip airfare from Los Angles (LAX), San Francisco (SFO), Seattle (SEA), or Vancouver (YVR) airports. Chinese visa fees ($140) are not included. Departures may be made from other cities for an additional fee.

    Day 1–5: English-speaking guides will escort visitors to their hotels upon arrival in Beijing. A tour of China’s capital city begins the next day, with stops at the colossal Beijing National Stadium (AKA the Bird's Nest), which hosted the 2008 Summer Olympics’ opening ceremony, and the Forbidden City, a palatial fortress where emperors ruled mainland China in isolation for more than 500 years. During the four-day stint in Beijing, tours will also stop at Tiananmen Square and the Temple of Heaven, plus take the 37-mile drive up to Juyongguan to see the Great Wall.

    Day 6–7: Groups take a short flight southwest to the historic city of Xi’an, considered one of the four capitals of the ancient world, alongside Athens, Cairo, and Rome. Here, the Terracotta Horses and Warriors Museum is filled with 8,000 life-size statues of Chinese warriors and horses, built more than 2,200 years ago. Commissioned by Emperor Qin Shi Huang, the statue army was intended to defend him in the afterlife. Afterward, a dancing performance drawn from Tang Dynasty themes entertains while spectators dine from a spread of various dumplings.

    Day 8–10: The tour continues in Hangzhou and Suzhou, nicknamed “Paradise on Earth” and “the Venice of the East,” respectively. Each destination features a UNESCO World Heritage Site: Hangzhou's West Lake, surrounded by pagodas and temples, and Suzhou’s classical gardens.

    Day 11–13: The trip concludes with two days in Shanghai and a visit to the Shanghai Museum to see its collection of ancient Chinese bronze, jade, and calligraphy arts. Shopping on famed Nanjing Road, one of the busiest shopping streets in the world, precedes a dinner cruise on the Huangpu River. Finish the trip with a farewell banquet and a viewing of the Shanghai Acrobatic Show. Guests depart after breakfast the following morning from Shanghai.

Each destination features a UNESCO World Heritage Site: Hangzhou's West Lake, surrounded by pagodas and temples, and Suzhou’s classical gardens.

    Day 8–10: The trip concludes with two full days in Shanghai and a visit to The Bund, a waterfront lined with buildings exhibiting art-deco, gothic, and neo-classical architecture. Outside the City God Temple, tourists can shop at more than 100 specialty stores and markets outside, many housed in buildings nearly a century old.

    One-Night Stay for Two in an Ocean-View Room or Ocean-View Casita Suite at Terranea Resort in Greater Los Angeles

    Opulent, Eco-Conscious Coastal Resort with Old-World Charm

    When night falls, a constellation of twinkling outdoor fireplaces lights up Terranea Resort’s 100-acre expanse of Pacific Ocean coastline. The fires are a kind of modern-day analog to the encampments of early Spanish explorers who discovered the Palos Verdes Peninsula several hundred years ago. Terranea pays tribute to these first European settlers with a Mediterranean design incorporating red adobe roofs and archways inlaid with colorful mosaic tiles.

    The resort also maintains an eco-friendly focus. Its grounds are comprised of roughly 75% green space, including a 2-mile Discovery Trail affording occasional views of gray whales performing graceful offshore line dances from December to April. The resort's emphasis on nature extends to lushly appointed ocean-view rooms and casita suites, which are accented with golden-hued woods and seashells of all sizes. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors open onto private balconies overlooking the water.

    A 50,000-square-foot glass-walled fitness center and spa offers state-of-the-art cardio equipment as well as daily classes, including yoga and seaside spin sessions, during which participants pedal stationary bikes on an outdoor terrace facing Catalina Island. Golfers tee off on The Links at Terranea, a nine-hole, par 3 course dotted with indigenous California plants. Water lovers loll by one of three ocean-view pools or shoot down the 140-foot water slide.

    Among the resort's many dining options, mar'sel—an upscale, oceanfront eatery—serves flavorful dishes crafted by chef Michael Fiorelli using sustainable methods and local ingredients, including fresh herbs plucked from a garden guests pass on their way in.

    Rancho Palos Verdes, California: Secluded Coastal Town Abounding with Aquatic Adventure

    Nestled in the hills of the Palos Verdes Peninsula, secluded Rancho Palos Verdes is home to expansive estates set on jagged bluffs looming over the coastline. Terranea's Pointe Discovery adventure shop equips visitors for exploring all that the peninsula has to offer, including standup paddleboarding, kayaking, snorkeling, and mermaid speed dating. Fewer than 2 miles from the resort, the Abalone Cove Shoreline Park, a state ecological preserve, boasts pristine tide pools home to sea stars, pointy urchins, and brightly colored anemones.

    Within walking distance of the cove lies Wayfarers Chapel, a structure built from glass and redwoods by Lloyd Wright, son of pioneering architect Frank Lloyd Wright. The Point Vicente Lighthouse also stands nearby. First lit in 1926 as a beacon to mariners aiming to steer clear of rocky shoals, the lighthouse now makes an ideal spot for whale watching.

    Cowboys felt strong bonds with their horses, often sharing scant water rations with them during trips across the desert and interpreting their whinnies as investment advice. Build cross-species friendships with this Groupon.

    $25 for One Western Horseback-Riding Lesson (Up to $60 Value)

    Trainers teach students Western-style riding techniques during lessons that average 60 minutes and are adaptable to riders of beginning to world-champion skill levels. Participants must wear Western boots or leather-soled shoes with a heel during sessions.

    Billy Camarillo Cutting Horses

    Experienced instructors at Billy Camarillo Cutting Horses tailor classes to horses’ dispositions and riders’ goals. Although they offer beginners lessons in basic Western-riding techniques, the staff specializes in training more advanced horsepeople in cutting, a fast-paced equestrian sport in which the rider attempts to separate a single cow from the rest of its herd. To facilitate cutting practice, live cattle graze on the premises 95% of the time, and students practice on a mechanical cow famed for its iron-flavored milk during the remaining 5%. The full-service facility also provides room and board for many patrons' steeds, and Billy himself takes in young colts in need of starting.

    • For $1,499, you get a partial Ulthera nonsurgical face-lift, from the chin to the cheeks (a $3,000 value).

A trained staffer performs the roughly 30- to 60-minute laser-free session by using ultrasound technology to generate a detailed image of the face's structure before directing sound waves deep into the dermis, gently heating the tissue to prompt the body's own healing responses to tighten the skin. The FDA-approved system also works to bolster collagen production and rearrange freckles into an attractive toile pattern over the course of the next few months. Clients may experience mild discomfort during treatment but generally require no downtime.

Single treatments can target the abdomen, whereas two treatments can tackle the abs, upper and lower flanks, or both hips, arms, or inner thighs.

After reviewing the testing results, Dr. Dave reports his findings and performs the first adjustment to try to correct conga-lining vertebrae. The third visit entails another adjustment and a therapeutic massage customized to the client's needs as recommended by the doctor. The licensed massage therapist targets specific muscles during a session that is both relaxing and healing, like a band-aid that emits ocean sounds.

Colon-hydrotherapy sessions aim to nix impacted waste, with benefits that include combating bad breath, tempering indigestion, and relieving headaches. After the treatments, which average about 45 minutes, clients tend to feel less fatigued, move more freely, and break dance more convincingly. Infrared-sauna treatments are available to supplement the hydrotherapy, enveloping the body in rays that penetrate the skin with up to 1.5 inches of depth. The saunas release toxins through the skin, thereby cleansing the system and buoying whole-body health. Detoxifying foot spas have much the same effect, drawing toxins through the feet, and the staff's trained nutritionist can help prevent toxins from entering the body in the first place. Beverly Hills Health's chiropractics relieve tension and align spines without requiring patients to sleep in a straitjacket and Swedish, deep-tissue, and prenatal massages relax muscular tissue and minds for 30 minutes or one hour. Additionally, Zerona treatments amplify health by eliminating adipose fatty tissue without surgery or wounds.

Clients then revivify their visages with a choice from more than a dozen facials and peels that bolster collagen production and imbue epidermises with skin-tightening, age-defying nutrients. To cap off a day of relaxation or soothe away the stresses of chauffeuring children from soccer practice to their stockbroker's office, the multitalented staff also doles out mani-pedis and calming massages.
