KRISTEN BELL
Actress

"Glamis [Algodones] Sand
Dunes! We camp in an RV
and go off-roading as often
as possible. We find it very
freeing to escape real life
for a long weekend and get
dirty in the sand."

Author

"Most of my road trips
involve bird-watching-I go
to arid and unpopulated
places like the Panoche
Valley and the Carrizo
Plain, where Mountain
Bluebirds and Prairie
Falcons hang out."

LANDON DONOVAN
Soccer star

"[There aren't] many
drives more beautiful than
up the Pacific Coast Highway. Malibu, Morro Bay,
and Big Sur are musts.
There are hundreds of
places to enjoy the beach,
wine, and sunshine."
