Im back in UK,thanks for all your help.

Oh, I have been wondering about your trip. Could we have more details, please?

How did you finally get to Santa Cruz? Where did you stay? Did you go to Shadowbrook for dinner? What else did you do?

Im back in UK,thanks for all your help.

Got a taxi to santa cruz in the end,didnt leave myself enough time to arrange any different in the end.We stayed at the ramada on water street,despite some bad reviews we thought the place was awesome.Didnt get to the shaddowbrook but ate at most of the places on the wharf,which were great.Went to san fran for the day by greyhound which wasnt too bad.Did alcatraz,pier 39,chinatown and the tram up the top of california street and back down.It was OK but missed santa cruz while i was there!

We went to the pogonip to see the house from lost boys,did the boardwalk saturday and sunday.We went on the beach and swam in the sea,went along west cliff to the surf museum and natural bridges.Along the way we went to one of the little beaches and stayed there for ages and there was no one else around which was cool.

We basically just chilled out and enjoyed the place.We had a few good nights at the bar that did karaoke near the entrance to the wharf.

We ate at the santa cruz diner most morning which we enjoyed very much,it was such a coo place.

We went to meet Joe at Atlantis fantasy world comic shop to see the the vampires everywhere comic that was used in the lost boys.They filmed in his shop in the film and he was given the prop as a gift.Joe was a great guy and we spent an hour or so talking with him.

I was so sad to leave the place,deffs going back next year.

I%26#39;m glad you enjoyed your time in Santa Cruz, it is such a unique area of the CA coast. :)

Lostboy,

Thanks for the report It sounds as if you really packed a lot into your stay. I am glad it worked out so well. Also glad you got a day in San Francisco.

Let us know when you come back.

Hi we are leaving on a tour of West US in a week and are hoping to spend an afternoon in Santa Cruz. Very interested in the comic shop...we have a son who is a fan of the film - Lost Boys - is there any memorabillia available to buy..which we could bring back for him as a souvenir? also where is the shop we may have time to have a quick look

By the way I went to school in Castleford!!!!

The Atlantis Fantasyworld comic shop is listed in the telephone book at 1020 Cedar Street, which parallels the main street, Pacific Avenue, one block over.

I don%26#39;t know abouy Lost Boy memorabilia, but I will guess that ';lostboy'; will.

Thankyou Puter....yet another addition to our itinerary!

There is no memorabilia as such,there is the comic that i mentioned so you could always get a pic of that for him.They sell the lost boys dvd and the sequel that came out this year (but stay away from that it was really bad) the only other things they have are the 4 lost boys comics that bridge the gap between the original and the sequel.These are OK i suppose.Just buy him an old batman comic from the store,if he is a big fan like me he will understand!

Which school in cas did you go to?I went to Airedale high.

I%26#39;m sure I%26#39;ll find something for him.....thanks

It was the Grammer school then - over 40 years ago...Castleford High now..
