Julie's California Blog - Day 17, Tuesday, April 16th
Fresh Folks today. Sharon arrived from Tampa so the activity level picked up immensely as has security at LAX. There were 4 police cars parked at the incoming lanes to LAX checking cars as they entered the airport area. I quickly found Sharon curbside and we got out of there.
We began our day with a tasty lunch in Manhattan Beach at Rock N Fish. Manhattan Beach is a charming little community with lots of extraordinary restaurants and boutiques. It's probably most famous for it's beach volleyball, the most notable the Manhattan Beach Open - Jose Cuervo Pro Beach Volleyball. Each year, the tournament winners' names are placed on a large bronze medallion and permanently positioned on the pier similar to the stars placed on the sidewalk of Hollywood Boulevard's "Walk of Fame.". We saw at least 4 medals with Olympic superstars Misty May and Kerri Walsh.
After lunch and getting Sharon settled in the condo, we spent a quiet afternoon catching up. We walked the pups to the Pier for dinner at American Junkie. It was kind of a slow evening at the pier. Perhaps because the winds have picked up again, sustained at 20 - 30 miles per hour. But the shrimp tacos and $3.00 wine were delicious and we had a beautiful sunset.
