Parking was easy with lots of places. We walked down to the pier with Madigan. He has lots of good sniffs and piddles before we got into the zoo of the actual pier. Lots of others decided they’d come here too. A favourite tourist site. The ocean was grand with great breakers. I was thankful to be on land. After years of sailing off shore I’m very respectful of the sea. I’m so enjoying land and my motorhome. Lots of food outlets on the pier. I liked the sign for the end of Route 66 the famous highway that crossed the continental.
My friend George was on this last year or the year before driving a stretch with a friend in a fast car.
I liked taking pictures, enjoyed the sun shine and the carnival spirit of the Pier. Kids and dogs and families.
After we had delicious omelette croissant’s at this delightful indoor out expresso stop called Ciello. The spiced mocha was a new treat. I like LA for the novelty. I got Madigan a side of bacon and he loved being hand fed by Laura.
Then we drove to the Hollywood Walk of fame getting lost and driving up to the top of the hills because I’d put in the wrong Hollywood Blvd street numbers. Laura said her ears popped and with the narrow climbing winding lanes I felt like I was back on mountain logging roads hunting. It’s like West Vancouver. Not my cup of tea. I’m a flatlander and Laura was glad when we got back down to plains. The rain had returned in full so we didn’t stop, just drove by the walk of fame and headed home for an evening in,
We’re watching old Bosch episodes and enjoying the sights and references of this Hollywood Homicide series. “Look that’s where we were’ we shout every episode.
Of course it was Christmas Day and we were thankful we’d attended the St. Andrew and St. Charles Episcopal Choral Eucharist last night. God is good all of the time and we feel blessed to be alive and here.
Thank you Jesus.
