Long Beach...then home!

After the not so beach-like pismo experience, we decided to hit up Long Beach on Thursday on our way to the airport. We left David & Mel's a bit early so we could have a few hours on the beach before flying home. One stop at Walmart for beach towels and we were headed south! Although it was only about 10am by the time we hit LA, there was already traffic!


Reason #947 not to live in LA!


But we did end up passing Flo-dub's street!

We found the beach pretty easily and I couldn't wait to get out of the car and down to the beach!

Now that's more like it!
Lucky for us, the weather cooperated wonderfully and we really enjoyed Long Beach.


Nothin' like a little sand between your toes!


We walked on the path down the beach, then laid out a bit, played in the water, wrote messages in the sand and even found some shells to bring home.

Seriously miss living by the ocean...being land-locked is no good!


But not as much as I love Jar!


The one thing other than playing with the little ones I wanted to do was go to the beach...and I got to go twice!! Thanks Long Beach for a great day!


Well, I guess it's time to go home. Jar's heading into the Long Beach airport- which is very small by the way.


Time to go home...what a great trip!
(yes we are a bit red!)
