We've been having fun exploring West LA during the weekends when Trung is at home. Today we hit the Farmer's Market in downtown Santa Monica and had lunch at a sports bar called Yankee Doodle. Personally, I felt that this market was a bit overpriced and dirty, so I think I'll stick with the Playa Vista one across the street. After lunch we strolled along the 3rd street Promenade until Sophie threw a big fit and we had to leave. The weather was a bit cloudy, but the sun finally came out during lunch.

Taking a break while the kids had fruit snacksAfter everyone (except Lydia) took naps, we packed some edamame, oranges, and cheerios, and hit the beach...Venice Beach. We took the free water shuttle bus and met some nice people along the way, but I did lose my cell phone too. (Oh well, I can get a full upgrade in a few days anyways). We still enjoyed the sun and sand, and a delicious Mediterranean dinner at Gaby's afterwards.
