11 Things You'll Fall in Love With on This Southern California Train Trip

Your first official stop takes only eight minutes if you're hopping on at the Sante Fe Depot, or make this your jumping off point. It wouldn't be a quintessential SoCal stop without a salt-air stroll along the famous Mission Beach boardwalk. A quick Uber ride or jaunt on the Number 8 bus will connect you to the breeze as the skateboarders whiz by you and partake in some epic people watching on your boardwalk walk. Fun fact: there's a churro place to get your munch on, because no stroll is complete without a snack, obviously.
