There does seem to be interest in a Southern California group. Please select the city you would like to meet in. If you select other please let me know what city you want.

Thanks for doing this!
I picked Mission Viejo, but really could do any but Long Beach.
Hope to meet some KBers!

 

[Shizu]

I won't be able to make it on 6th. So I'll join the next time.

Can I vote for Laguna Beach?

Not that I could possibly come, but Laguna is one of my favorite places on earth!

Sure - So Laguna has 1 vote

 

[RamTheHammer]

Just a bump to keep this on 1st page. Hope that's OK.

West LA/Santa Monica/Brentwood anyone?

 

[RamTheHammer]

So far it looks like Mission Veijo or Long Beach. Can anyone from those areas suggest a meeting place?

 

[Mom of 4]

Mission Viejo has a few right off the 5 fwy.  Parking not so great at either!
La Paz or Oso Parkway exits.

I'm assuming that the parking is free at either location. Is that correct?

 

[Mom of 4]

Yes, it's free, just cramped.

Yes, it's free, just cramped.

I checked out the sat photos for that area. It looks like this Starbucks:

26137 La Paz Rd # A1
Mission Viejo, CA 92691

(949) 583-7562‎

has plenty of parking. Is it possible for you to do a "drive by" and check it out?

 

[Carol Hanrahan]

I'm so close to that Mission Viejo Starbucks, I could almost spit on it!  hahaha!
Is there a time selected?

 

[Mom of 4]

Carol: 10:00 am this Saturday!  Hope you can drop by!

Ram: Parking is not really THAT bad, guess I'm picky.

Anyone else in South OC:  Drop in, it's right of the 5 Fwy, VERY easy to get to!

 

[Carol Hanrahan]

 

[Shizu]

Ooohh, I'm going to miss this. I live like 10 min from there.

Just a little bit confused:

There are 2 Starbucks near that off ramp. If you are going south and get off at La Paz and go straight across La Paz there is a one at:

25912 La Paz Rd # A, Laguna Hills (Cabot - La Paz)

However, if you get off and turn left onto La Paz towards Chrisanta Drive there is one there as well:

26137 La Paz Rd # A1, Mission Viejo (just a block or 2 from freeway)

So which on will we me meeting at?

 

[Mom of 4]

Hay Carol, Which one can you spit on?
Shizu:  That's too bad, would love to meet you!  Maybe another time, or maybe you'll find an extra 30 minutes Saturday someway!

 

[Carol Hanrahan]

The one on Cabot.  The other Starbucks used to be a Deidrich's, didin't it?
I could ride my bike, it would be downhill all the way.  Going home wouldn't be so fun, though....
Which one are we going to?

 

[Mom of 4]

I vote for Cabot/LaPaz.
Anyone else wanting to join us will be able to see it right off the freeway exit.
