We had the best summer ever in California.

We did a road trip from San Francisco to San Diego, and visited Big Sur, San Diego, Santa Cruz, Santa Barbara and Los Angeles. EPIC.

Here are my favourite five things to do in California:

1. Go on a Helicopter Ride

We took a private helicopter tour over LA. I loved seeing all the famous stars houses and the Hollywood sign and flying over the ocean. My Mum got really scared when the helicopter tipped sideways. The pilot even played my favourite AC/DC track through the headphones.

Riding a Jet Ski was so so so so so so awesome!!! I can’t wait to do it again.

We really loved Big Sur. Here I am riding a swing over the river and then jumping in – I got very wet!

One of my favourite things to do in California is to surf. It’s probably my favourite sport. I surfed a lot this summer. This photo is from Santa Cruz. Last summer, I could just about stand up but this summer I learned about turning on the waves. It was so fun.

The very very best thing about California? Hanging out on the beach of course!
