Dealers will love the maintenance revenue from REEVs.

I'm actually shopping more at Mitsuwa since Tokyo Central opened. Less crowded and well stocked. Not sure how long before Mitsuwa goes out of business.

I stayed in Celebration while visiting Disney World. Reminded me of Irvine, but too humid for my comfort.

According to Reddit comments, Orobae had two owners. One was shady, and the partners split up. Not sure if the Desouro owner is the good or bad one.

I agree. While I loved Orobae, there is no way I'm waiting 1+ hour for a drink (see Yelp reviews).

Orobae is back! Well soft of--same owner, but new name: Desouro. They moved next to Kitakata Ramen. They are still in a soft opening with limited days and hours. The menu looks similar. https://www.yelp.com/biz/desouro-irvine-4 https://desouro.com/menu

Parking is already bad in that area. If you'd rather avoid the crowds, try this virtual tour instead. The prepared foods section looks nice! They also have a sushi restaurant, Waka Sakura, next door. I don't foresee going back to Mitsuwa.

Yes, EDD is administered by CA but does receive federal grants. Take a look what’s going on with our federal money: Trump preparing large-scale cancellation of federal funding for California, sources say https://www.cnn.com/2025/06/06/politics/trump-california-federal-funding

No benefits for you, so that we can fund Trump's upcoming birthday/military parade. Sad to see what our government has become.

Glad you were able to spend time with your family during your downtime. Sorry to hear you got COVID. I did a shorter Carnival cruise to Mexico and was underwhelmed by the food choices. I did enjoy my shore excursions and shopping.

Don't forget about the powerlines along Jeffrey Rd.

For Tesla, just park and walk away. The car powers down automatically. To “start,” put your foot on the brake and select drive.

That's a nice lot, but good luck getting insurance. The area is now rated as a High Fire Hazard Severity Zone.

My wife does the same thing. Her daily driver is an EV, and whenever she borrows my ICE car, she forgets to turn it off after parking. 😂
