Waking up on the streets of LA

We made our way about a 100 miles south down the Pacific Coast Hwy down thru Santa Barbara, Malibu and into Santa Monica.  Rte 1 is now basically at sea level  with lots of pull outs and beaches to stop at along the way.  One beach had a row of at least 30 RV's parked bumper to bumper parallel to the water. One step out the door and you were in the surf and sand!  We pulled into a State Beach near Malibu, had a nice lunch al fresco and let Jack break in his new skim board.



The look on his face, carrying his skim board, was priceless.  He was just so excited and looked pretty cool exiting the RV.  I think he is liking this California lifestyle. 

The weather is perfect...just about 80 degrees.  


Sand Angels instead of Snow Angels!
We drove into Santa Monica and are literally waking up on the streets of LA right in front of Ollie's house!  Ollie is Jack's friend from home who just moved the LA in August.  Jack said this is the highlight of his trip, seeing his friend.  We had a delightful dinner with is family and lots of stories and laughs.  The boys are having fun on their computers and hanging out together.  Off to Santa Monica Pier today and more photos later.

Today we are going to Oliver Ralph’s house!  I was so excited because I hadn’t seen him in a while.  He was in our school, but moved to Los Angeles.  So, we went to his house.  He was so excited to see me!  I was pretty excited to see him too.  We went to the park and we played soccer.  It was Ollie and me verses Tyler and Ollie’s Dad.  It was a pretty rough game, but we won of course.
