California (IRL)
California is the southwesternmost-ish state in the United States. It feels like a dream from a Hollywood movie. Because that's basically where Hollywood is. It's got Facebook and the Silicon Valley Bank, national parks and highway underpasses for skate board, many restaurants (especially In-N-Out Burger), and wine made from farmers who unionized with Cesar Chavez. Good for him!
Things to do in California
- Run.
- Really, really fast.
- If you ever touch anything here, including air, run like hell.
- Hang ten, dude!
- Say hi to Curiosity.
Notable communities and places
Anaheim
Outside of Disneyland and TikTokConVidCon, this city just... exists.
Bakersfield
Barstow
It's got the first non-standard McDonald's, and one of the few still standing today. Other than that it's practically nothing.
Berkeley
UC Berkeley exists. Other than that, I have no clue.
Burbank
DO NOT GO TO THE ABANDON BURBANK FRY'S I REPEAT DO NOT GO TO THE ABANDON BURBANK FRY'S
Carlsbad
It has a music museum that rocks.
Cupertino
It has Apple Park! Do you like iPhones and iPads and Apple Watches and other Apple stuff? Go here then, I guess. Oh, and it also had an infinite loop robot hand ice cream machine.
Emeryville
If a drunk guy tried rebuilding San Diego from memory, this would be the result. For whatever reason, the train to Chicago terminates here instead of San Francisco.
Fresno
It exists (debatably). It's a bit more inland. It was mentioned in that one movie with the seth rogan blob. Named for ash trees.
Fullerton
The train station there sees a pretty high volume of traffic. Also home to several unis and colleges.
Indio
It's got Coachella and Yo Gabba Gabba!
Long Beach
Very notable waterside city. Somehow, a British ocean liner is docked here.
Los Angeles
Hollywood basically owns this place. Lots of sports too, including an upcoming Olympic Games, and especially the Lakers.
Monterey
The Monterey Bay Aquarium is a must visit if you like aquariums without those damn seals. It has damn sea otters, though.
Oakland
Has plenty of problems. Some are serious and need to be fixed. The problem with sports... not so serious, but I still feel bad. The Raiders left, the Warriors (sorta) left, and the A's are on the verge of leaving too. Besides, what happened to their Coliseum? Check out Homeroom Mac & Cheese while you're here.
Oceanside
You can transfer between northbound Metrolink trains and southbound COASTER trains. Oh, and also SPRINTER trains.
Ontario
NOT a Canadian province.
Pasadena
Best known for hosting the 1994 FIFA World Cup Final at the Rose Bowl, as well as a large annual parade culminating with handegg at the same venue. Known residents include Single-Celled Cigarette. Pasadena is also known as the home of the world famous California Pizza Kitchen Make-a-Wish creation, the spaghetti pizza (discontinued est. 2007).
Redondo Beach
The Esplanade is perfect for skating.
Sacramento
The state capital. Has a lot of museums... and the Kings. And like, 7 of every store every block. Lavender District is cool tho.
San Diego
Besides the zoo, San Diego is notable for being right next to Mexico. Also Comic-Con International.
San Francisco
Very mountainous. Has a lot of "painted ladies", cable cars, a large bridge, and Chinatown. The invasive Cherry-Headed Conures live here.
San Jose
Why, despite San Francisco being more well-known, is San Jose the biggest city in the Bay Area? Well, because it's kind of the best one. There's at least one convention center and a Pizza my Heart, what more do you want? The Christian school near Campbell Ave gives away free goldfish every summer but you didn't hear that from me.
Santa Barbara
Spanish architecture all over the place.
Santa Clara
A little more Spanish architecture and, somehow, the 49ers.
Santa Monica
Has a very big and popular pier with an amusement park in it.
Stanford
CARY HUANG IS A STANFORD UNIVERSITY ALUMNI, FUCK YEAH!!!!!!
Tehachapi Loop
Here, trains loop over themselves. It's an easier way to descend the mountains rather than facing a steep gradient.
WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca
Nyoom.
A motorcycle just passed by.
Travel
Transit Tour
Passenger rail
Check this shit out. /very pos
Important Note
It is vital for Wiki Camp readers to note that this is, as it turns out, bullshit. California is a series of small islands rather than a mainland state. We are currently working to eradicate these claims from the face of the earth, but not quite as much as nerpas so we'll like get back to you on that ig
