Review of Pasadena, California


Not just for little old ladies.......???
Star Rating - 8/11/2009
Everyone has heard of this quint expression of Little Old Lady from Pasadena...which
is not entirely untrue since there are many retired people living here. I remembered
seeing older people everywhere I went in the 1970s when I lived there as a teenager.
An old couple lived next door to us whom we called "Grandpa" who drove a 1950s car.
Today there maybe more younger people due to the renewal of the OLD PASADENA section
where sidewalk cafes and famous chains like HOOTERS open shops. Homes also reminded
one of the age of the city with its many 1920 style homes. The City Hall area with its famous historic library also give a feeling of a highly cultured historic city.
Many famous tourist must-sees are also located in or near Pasadena, including the Huntington Library with its many species of living plants and flowers. Of course, every New Year, we have the ROSE PARADE with the Princess elected from local school
beauty pageant.
