Diamond Bar

I saw this red Mini on Pathfinder in Diamond Bar, near Diamond Bar High School. The day is March 31, 2006.

Covina

I think this Mini has one of those new metallic blue paint jobs. I saw it driving east on Cypress in Covina on March 23, 2006.

West Covina

It's amazing how a new Mini can enter in your daily routine. This yellow Mini (I think of it as a bumble bee) was parked at the Edgewood Middle School track on March 22, 2006.

Pasadena

I saw two Minis in the parking lot of Peet's Coffee in Pasadena on March 19, 2006. I guess Mini owners like to drink good coffee.

Here's the second. I suppose the owner could have been visiting Noah's Bagels next door.

Torrance

This electic blue Mini and I were driving east on Sepulveda in Torrance on March 19.

Torrance

I saw this very dusty Mini at King's Hawaiian restaurant in Torrance on March 19, 2006. I had to be somewhat discreet about taking this photo as the drivers to the left and right of the Mini were returning to their vehicles.

Arcadia

A trip to Santa Anita Mall on March 18 fetched this all-black Mini in the parking garage. I remember it was very cold that day.

Arcadia

Happy St. Patrick's Day! I saw this Mini on March 17, 2006 in Arcadia in a Sav-On plaza on Baldwin Avenue.

Freeway

This was sort of a dangerous sighting. I was driving with morning traffic on the 134 heading east on March 13, 2006; I was tired; I wasn't wearing my contacts. Somehow, I managed.

Freeway

This silver Mini was seen spotted on the 110 Freeway heading north on March 12, 2006.

And here's a white one on the same freeway.

Freeway

I saw this Mini while driving south on the 110 Freeway, going toward Redondo Beach, on March 12, 2006.

Los Angeles

I saw this silver Mini in the parking lot of the Los Angeles Zoo on March 5. It was around 5:30 p.m., and the zoo had closed. It's nice to know that Mini owners are also animal lovers.

Alhambra

I think Minis look much better with racing stripes. When they don't have stripes, they look naked and incomplete. I saw this in Mini at Main and Third in Alhambra on March 4.

Burbank

This Mini was on Palm, near San Fernando, in Burbank. It's amazing that certain cities have a larger concentration Minis. For example, I saw this Mini and the two in the previous post within 10 minutes of one another.

Burbank

I saw this Mini inside a parking lot at Palm and Third in downtown Burbank on March 4.

Another Mini, same garage. I actually got out of the car to photograhp this Mini. It's amazing how every Mini looks different, even though they might be exactly the same.

Glendale

I almost didn't get this photo. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw a Mini coming down the Brand off-ramp of the 134 in Glendale on March 4. But I saw it, quickly reached for my camera and got this photo.

It's really hard to see this Mini, but I promise you that it's there. It's the last one (the farthest right), in the row. I was driving south on Central in Glendale on March 4 when I first saw this Mini on my right. I wasn't able to take the picture in time, but later when I passed by again, I took the photo.

Cabrillo Beach

Although he's new to Mini Sightings, Bernardo Alps is having great success. He had a double Sighting on March 3, 2006 in Cabrillo Beach. It's too bad they don't make that blue anymore.

West Covina

I was totally surprised by this Mini. It took me several seconds to realize that it was in front of me, driving south on Valinda Avenue on March 2, 2006.

Diamond Bar

David Pardo is a photography intern at the San Gabriel Valley Tribune. Actually, he calls himself the best photo intern the Trib has ever had. He spotted this Mini between assignments on
Brea Canyon Road in Diamond Baron March 2. It's the street that all the high school students park on. I wonder if it's the Mini as the one I saw back in December.
