good morning from venice beach

good morning from venice beach

A few pictures from Venice Beach and the Canals. I took a walk this morning and this time I had a camera with me. It was nice, but got really warm quickly.
I have to wake up earlier…
Is that snow in the first picture? It sure looked and felt like it…

Venice beach fireworks

Venice beach fireworks

Just a couple of pictures I took yesterday at the Venice Beach. We did not have time to go over to Marina Del Rey, so we just went down to Venice Beach. Fireworks was OK, but it’s much nicer, and closer (and louder) from Marina. These pics were poladroid-ized (oh how I love that toy!):

After I missed two Thursday hikes, first Sven was sick and then me, I was finally able to go out for a hike. I went back to Will Rogers Park, and this time there were no bees, so I headed up Inspiration Point trail. I am not sure I actually got to the Inspiration Point [...]

walk around the neighborhood

walk around the neighborhood

I should take more walks. I remeber when my first son was born, we walked every day, all around the neighborhood. When he was very little, we used to go as soon as he woke up (and it was not dark outside, this IS Venice after all). He was usually fussy early in the morning, [...]
