The Catalina Island Thread

**HB Vic** · 08-16-2016, 11:41 AM

A few of the things I've learned after being here for so long:

1. I need to find out when Vons stocks their fresh foods. Rancid salad is disgusting.
2. There are a few places I will no longer eat at. Horrible food, horrible service, and horrible prices.
3. Do not stay in the rooms at the Atwater that face the big Vons. For some reason the kids are out on that street all night long.
4. It is possible to run out of new things to eat here.
5. Sometimes you actually need a jacket here.
6. You don't have to be on an Island to be isolated from your family, it just makes it easier to accept.
7. Who the hell is Rich Meyers?
8. Going from an Island to the Desert wears you out.
9. If you overtip, they will overpour.
10. People here seem friendlier, but they're really not. They are the same.
11. The apple scones at the Metropole Cafe are killer.
12. If you stay at the Atwater, you really will need soap on a rope.
13. Taking a golf cart to work is cool, until you hit a speed bump WOT, then its not cool.
14. The Catalina Express Boat, without the couches in the Lounge, sucks for sleeping.
15. The wash the streets on Thursday mornings with salt water. Its devastating to the hardware on your suitcase.
16. The toilets here use saltwater, don't drink out of them in a drunken stupor.
17. Water saving shower heads suck ass.
