Tropical Butterflies at South Coast Botanic Garden’s SOAR

If you read my previous post, you already know that I visited the South Coast Botanic Garden. In addition to going “egg hunting” on the grounds of the garden, I went there to specifically see their tropical butterfly exhibit called SOAR. There’s an additional fee to visit this exhibit but it’s worth it if you want to see exotic butterflies up close.

Finding Cirque du Soleil Eggs from OVO

It’s about to officially be summer but prior to that happening, I want to blog about my experience with finding eggs. I know what you’re thinking but this blog post isn’t about Easter. It’s actually about Cirque du Soleil’s eggs at the South Coast Botanic Garden.

The Cave Temples of Dunhuang

There’s a place I’d like to see in real life if I could. It’s known as the cave temples of Dunhuang. Located in northwestern China, I’ve heard it’s a bit difficult to get to but well worth the difficulty. For now, I’m content with coming as close as I can to experiencing the caves of Dunhuang.

Tet Festival Flashback

In honor of the approaching Lunar New Year, I am blogging about Tet. Back in 2018, I had the opportunity to attend Tet Festival, which was held in Costa Mesa. It’s an event that happens annually, however I wouldn’t be surprised if the event isn’t held this year per COVID. Since I never got the chance to share about my experience with the festival, I’m doing it today!

Moonlight Forest

Spending money to attend Moonlight Forest at the Los Angeles County Arboretum was so worth it. Having been to the Los Angeles County Arboretum before, it was quite the experience to see the grounds transformed into something else. If you think you’ll be able to catch glimpses of the grounds during Moonlight Forest, think again. The most you will be able to catch a glimpse of is the somewhat eerie yet beautiful Victorian home when viewing the dragon from afar.
