Linkin park - Reanimation

Review Summary:   Listen to the album right now if you did not. AWESOME I stumbled up on this video Pts.OF.Athrty when i was browsing through the channels trying to find something interesting and to my surprise i found this  video  when i did not know about this new band called Linkin Park and i was in love with this video and song so much which made me curious as a human to see how good their other songs were. I used to wait all day for the song to be replayed on TV. After a while, i was able to get my hands on the album and boy o boy it was amazing. I fell in love with how this rock band sounded sort of like metal, hip hop and later in their albums have a fusion of electronic and pop. I enjoyed listening to every one of their albums though. Album Starts off with: Opening - which takes you to this other world and preps you for what is about to come in the next few mins. Then comes Pts.OF.Athrty and blows your mind away.

Answer is “ Wilder State Ranch Park ” in Santa Cruz.   Santa Cruz in itself is beautiful and offer a lot of places but the beach gets crowded but there are so many things in this town and near by cities which has less crowd and more Joy and this park is one of the finest. Getting to this park is easy drive to Santa cruz and if you want to park inside the park, it is $10 and there are some spots outside the park as well but with some walk. Parking lot has restrooms. We went on to explore “ Old landing Cove Trail ” and the trail in itself is easy 2.4 mile roundtrip where we can hike or bike. You will see trail with fresh air and bushes until u get to beautiful views of the coastline and you can see waves welcoming you in their own way. As you walk along you see parking lot for seals and we came across two curious ones who were in...
