Even though the beaches clearly dominate the summer in Southern California, there still is a considerable amount of people who prefer swimming in a lake over catching the waves of the ocean. But lakes are not only perfect places to go swimming and fishing, mostly there are camping sites close by so that you can enjoy nature day and night! Fox Rent A Car knows where such lake camping grounds are, so have fun!

Frank G. Bonelli Regional Park

This park is just a few miles West of Ontario, CA in San Dimas. It offers almost 2,000 acres of pure entertainment, including a water-theme park, nature walks, swimming, picnicking and horseback riding. To relax at night time we recommend you to camp on the East Shore RV Park. The beach is open for swimming from Thursdays to Sundays only between June 24^th and Labor Day, so make sure that you come here on the right days.

Lake Arrowhead

This lake is about 50 miles North East of Ontario, CA in the woodlands close to Big Bear. The elevation is at about 5,500’ and Lake Arrowhead invites you for kayaking, boating, backpacking and hiking among others. Have fun and witness the amazing Southern Californian nature. Be very careful though – due to the heat and dryness fires can break out easily, so watch the park rules!

Castaic Lake State Recreation Area

Castaic Lake is about one hour north of downtown Los Angeles in the Angeles woods. This spot lets you fully enjoy any kind of water activities. Fishing, boating, water skiing, swimming, canoeing and so much more will keep you in and on the water all day long. At night time you can stay at the Lower Lake on the campgrounds. Make sure though that you get your reservation done on time. Even if you pay with a credit card, you must book at least 3 days in advance, if you prefer to pay by check you need to book a spot at least 30 days in advance.

Lake Hemet Campground

Lake Hemet is an ideal place if you want to go fishing, swimming or hiking. It’s in a rather remote area close to Riverside in the San Bernardino National Forest. You can camp close to the water and have a spectacular view of the mountains. There are playgrounds, and rangers ensure your safety and that the place is kept in order. This is the perfect place to come and visit with the kids!

Get out this summer, enjoy the nice temperatures and visit the beautiful Southern Californian lakes! Fox Rent A Car wants to hear your lake camping adventures. What stories can you tell us about your last lake camping trip? Raccoons, bears, coyotes? We want to hear your camping stories!

Statistics show that more and more grandparents take their grand children on a vacation. While in former days, the kids visited their grandparent’s houses, today all of them discover new places and have their travel adventures together! Which kid (and his or her parents) can say no to this opportunity? Travel Industry Association of America found out that 30% of all U.S. American leisure travelers who are grandparents, took their grand children on one trip or more! Did you know that there is even an official name for grand parents traveling with their grand children? It’s called grand travel! Even more and more kids and teenagers feel confident traveling with their grand parents – but what should all of them know and consider? Fox Rent A Car prepared a list of useful tips for traveling with grand children:

Travel with Grand Children: Medical Security and Official Documents

Make sure you have copies of the medical cards for all of your grand children, as well as permission from the parents that you can make medical care decisions! Note – you will need a notarized letter in case of an emergency. Also take all prescription cards, make sure your grand children have  dental insurance and their insurance is valid in the location you will go to! Always have a list of emergency contacts with you. Also, you need to make sure your grand children have a valid ID card with them. Eventually, even take their passports too. This is a worst case scenario, that nobody wants to happen, but if it does, it helps if you are prepared.

Travel with Grand Children: Planning Phase

Who decides where to go to, what to do, where to stay, when to travel? It may take a little longer to prepare everything, but discuss options with your grand children. Where would they like to go to? What can you do with them, and what is just too much for all of you? Combine your experiences and their creativity; the results will amaze all of you. You can also plan by using senior and kids’ discounts – in the end you will pay less with those discounts than using a family ticket!

Travel with Grand Children: On the road/ airplane

Remember how it was when you traveled with your own children? They needed to be entertained, especially in those “boring times” of sitting in the car, on the airport or in the train. Make sure you have some games handy, some music or books. Try to do something exciting with your grand children – they can watch their DVDs at home, too. Play and learn, isn’t that what grandparents offer to their grand children? Also check out our collection of posts about traveling with kids.

Travel with Grand Children: Your trip

Again – playing and learning is what your trip should be about. Show your grand children that there is a life without TV, computer and Xbox. In the end, it is just like in the old days: the more energy the children use during the day, the better they will sleep at night and the more comfortable they will become to spend time with their grand parents. Respect each other though – the world has simply changed so much during the past decades, you may just need to accept new hobbies, as weird as they may be for you! Consult the parents if you are not sure. Also, don’t forget that the kids won’t get tired as easily as you will!

Travel with Grand Children: After the trip

When everybody gets back home, its always a feeling of relief, but even a little sadness since the adventure “grand travel” is over. But take a few hours, and prepare a little presentation of your trip with your grand children! Using their computers to show the pictures, tell everybody what a wonderful trip it was! Be a good example of a person, parent and grand parent, and enjoy the time with the little ones as much as you can!

Have you traveled with your grand children before? Where did you go to, and what advises do you have for other grand parents? What is a must-do, what is a must-not-do? Share your stories and experiences, and help grand traveling even more!

Fox Rent A Car has done some research for you this time and picked the three best places to go shopping in Los Angeles, Burbank:

Here are some ideas of what you can do around our Fox Rent a Car locations in San Diego, Orange County and Los Angeles.

If you are planning to visit Northern California on Memorial Day weekend, read our post about Memorial Day Getaways in Northern California.

Things to do on Memorial Day in San Diego:

Being a military town, San Diego offers a variety of events and ceremonies for the fallen soldiers. The probably most impressive event will be at Fort Rosecrans National Cemetery in Point Loma. The Memorial Day Service starts at 10am and next to showing your respect to San Diego’s fallen ones, you can lose yourself in the impressive view from the Cemetery over Coronado, San Diego Downtown and Cabrillo Momument. Or, if you have not been there yet, visit the exhibition Japanese Americans in the Military at the Veterans Museum & Memorial Center. The exhibition will end on May 31^st, so hurry up! More info and how to get there are on the Balbo Park website.

In Coronado, you can visit Coronado Star Park, where a ceremony will be held from 10am. Getting to Coronado that weekend plus finding parking may be tricky, so allow yourself enough time for both to be on time.

There are a number of fun things to do too this Memorial Day weekend in San Diego, you can find an awesome list here:

Things to do on Memorial Day in Orange County:

Orange County has a lot to offer this Memorial Day weekend. Services and Ceremonies are mostly held on May 28^th in all major cities, such as Anaheim, Fullerton, and San Clemente. The Orange County City Guide provides you with a complete calendar so that you can choose where to go. Afterwards, you can spend the rest of the day on the beaches, stroll through the malls, go fishing or BBQ at your favorite park. For those of you who are in Anaheim on Memorial Day weekend, you can see Disneyland Park’s firework at 9.25pm every night.

Things to do on Memorial Day in Los Angeles:

Just a little up North from Orange County Memorial Day gets more culturally influenced. There is an art festival in Hermosa Beach, Cajun Creole Music Festival in Simi Valley, St. Nicholas Valley Greek Festival in Northridge, and the Annual Topanga Days Country Fair. Sounds like a lot of fun exploring music and arts, enjoying Greek food and entertainment!

Of course, there are also the obligatory Memorial Day Ceremonies, among others in Forest Lawn, where you can attend any of their Patriotic Memorial Day Program on May 31^st. A detailed list of locations is on the Forest Lawn website.

Tell us your plans!
