subject: Living The Orange County Dream [print this page] What comes to your mind when you hear Orange County, California? Maybe your mind runs straight to Anaheim and your fond memories of visits to Disneyland with your family, meeting the characters on the streets, paying too much for not-so-good food, and of course, riding the teacups that make you want to puke. If you like amusement parks, maybe you will also think of Knott's Berry Farm in Buena Park. Maybe you are a shopaholic and the first thing you think of are the world-renowned shopping centers such as South Coast Plaza in Costa Mesa or Fashion Island in Newport Beach.
No matter what specific locations or events you think of, there will probably be one word that will come to your mind. Class. Orange County is a classy, high-end place. Laguna Beach ring any bells?
