Hi everyone --
I'm going to LA on business in November. I want to take a day off and ride the Pacific Surfliner, not so much to see any particular destination, but just to experience the train and the coastal views.
What is the best way to go from LA? North to Santa Barbara / San Luis Obispo or south to San Diego? If I go north, is it worth going as far as SLO or will the ride to SB be sufficiently scenic? At the moment it looks like going as far as SB would be best, spending a few hours there and then return journey when the sun is setting.
Haven't been to LA before but am more interested in seeing the coastline and walking along the oceanside than stalking movie stars on over-priced bus tours around Hollywood.
Any advice much appreciated
