ah, too bad you'll be heading back home about 2 weeks before the HUGE fabulous fords forever show in buena park which is nearby :read:

i assume you'll have a rental car while out here?

1. Def. go to the Costa Mesa Mall. It's called " South Coast Plaza " at some point during your stay. One of the, if not the nicest mall in California. If you're married/have a gf then you can get her something real nice there. Or if you don't then you can check out the nice scenery if you know what I mean haha.

2. Check out the Irvine Spectrum, it's not too far from Costa Mesa.

3. Too bad you come on Monday, this Sunday is a big meet in Lakewood for the Mustang Pit Stop.

South Coast Plaza - I work there, very nice
Fashion Island
Irvine Spectrum - Cars and coffee is right next door
Beach Cities (Laguna Beach is great, small city and lots of cool oceanside shops)
John Force headquarters - In Yorba Linda and they have cool stuff to look at sometimes
