My Pico Rivera, CA Adventure 2 rating By Anonymous ( Aug 10, 2010) If you like golfing then Pico Rivera, California is the place for you to go. I went there three years ago with my boyfriend and the only thing we could find to do was golf. I don't mind golfing every now and again but I would have liked to have found something more interesting to ...Read More do or see. There wasn't much of a night life offered in Pico Rivera and it is a very small city. The golf course however is world class.

We did go to the Fiesta Rodeo where we saw some entertainment from some semi-famous musicians. It is a neon lit night club that does offer an interesting night but it was very slow paced actually. I wasn't too enthused by the entertainment either.

One interesting thing to do in Pico Rivera was go to the indoor swap meet where we bought some clothes and other items for very reasonable prices. We ate at some local mom and pop restraunts which were pretty good and stayed at a local motel. We seemed to be bored throughout the trip, which we did not expect. I feel that I could have had the same experience at home and all I really wanted to do was go back home. Read Less
