The Coyotes (hockey) are here and even the cheap seats are good at the arena. Glendale has the antiques, which I have yet to find and explore and also has theatre/concert halls. For the most part it is easy to get around here as long as you avoid the rush hour. The Chinese cultural center has several good resteraunts and shopping. I find great buys on books at the Biltmore shopping center on Camelback and 24th. I'll be here until mid-March. Have Fun!
