All this rain got you down? Well you know what they say, March showers bring April Flowers or something like that. The California superbloom is here and it’s going to be gorgeous! Come on a quick day trip to point mugu state park which is just north of malibu. Your guides Mel and Johann will provide lunch before going on a 5 mile hike for a few hours where you can take pictures and frolic in the flowers to your heart’s content. Please don’t actually wet your pants, only plants.
