In the coming days I’m going to post, in no particular order, things that I will miss when I leave Southern California.

Like any gay man that lives in Orange County, I worked at Disneyland for a couple of years.  I was lucky enough to have a fun job there where I had a lot of opportunities to interact with tourists from many different states and countries.

And my office now is only a few blocks away from the Disney Resort area.  I usually eat at least one or two lunches at the Del Taco or Taco Bell that is surrounded by hotels that Disney tourists occupy.

I enjoy watching the out-of-towners come in and order at a restaurant that they have never been in.  Watching the confused German family order off the not-so-authentic Mexican menu tickles me.

Just today a group of women came into the hole-in-the-wall that I was eating lunch at and asked the man behind the counter if he knew how to get to Triangle Square (the mall with an oxymoron in it’s name).  He told them it was easy…just go straight down Harbor.

So then I heard the women talking about walking there.  Ha!  If only they knew it was about  10 miles away.
