Hotel Del Coronado
On the beach near the Hotel Del Coronado in San Diego there are some mini sand dunes that spell out “Coronado”.

Looking at them listening to us
The 70 metre DSS-14 Deep Space Antenna was built by NASA in 1966 and services radio and radar astronomy projects, as well as occasionally tracking long-distance spacecraft. Apparently it weighs nearly 6 million pounds (2,721,554 kilos).

Long Beach
Long Beach, CA is a major port of entry for goods imported into the US via ship. This view gives a nice perspective on the sheer scale of the operation. Note the thousands of containers used in the process. Panning slightly to the right will also show a lone Queen Mary docked next to a large shiny object I guess is a fuel storage container.
Thanks: Todd Holden, John Neilson & Joe
Disneyland
After my faux pas of calling Walt Disney World in Florida “Disneyland” a few people submitted the real Disneyland in Anaheim, California.
