We went to Santa Monica today, and well, I'm in love. It was love at first site. We walked onto the beach and I looked around and knew I'd found the California beach of my dreams. The water was so blue, so pretty! It still wasn't as clear as Florida water, but it was good enough for me. The pier was awesome to see in the distance, and the sailboats. So, the pier was cool-- people doing little crafty things, fishing, restaurants, we rode the roller coaster and the ferris wheel. So fun. Then we walked to 3rd Street Promenade-- awesome!!! Packed full of shopping. So much shopping that I will need to go back. Several times. It was great. There were street performers ya know, dancing or playing instruments and stuff like that. Just a very cool place. Ivan saw some NBA player-- I'll have to ask him who it was. He said Hi to him and wanted to get a picture, but I was like no man leave him alone, dude just wants to shop like everyone else. I think I may have crushed his dream a little bit...oops. Anyway, if you ever come see me, I will definitely be taking you to Santa Monica. It was so cool & great, and probably exactly what you think of when you think of California... very cool place.
Here's some of the pictures... share.shutterfly.com/action/welcome?sid=9IZMWbVw5YV8
