What sentence best supports the author's intent for mentioning the "Rodeo Drive shopping spree" in the paragraph below?
When my parents said the three of us were moving out to California, to a place just north of Los Angeles, my mind
immediately went to thoughts of Disneyland and Hollywood, glitz and glamour. I imagined a Rodeo Drive shopping spree to
pick out a bikini for the endless days I would be spending on the beach. However, I'd forgotten about my parents' penchant
for the unconventional; they're definitely "the road less traveled" kind of people. Mom had a gopher snake for a pet when she
was younger, and Dad was never happier than when he was climbing near-vertical cliffs that only mountain goats could love.
These are not city folk.
"On the stone staircase that led to the front door, black lizards interrupted their push-ups to twist their heads and eye us
as we passed."
"Our new home consisted of one bedroom, one bathroom, and one big room for everything else."
"Dad told me the real estate agent had mentioned that coyotes, bobcats, mountain lions, rattlesnakes, and even bears
roamed these hills."
"In the city, or even in the suburbs where I had lived before, you could see only the brightest stars in the sky."
