On Our Free Weekend

With a busy weekend planned next weekend and the holidays right around the corner, we took advantage of this free weekend and stayed local. Saturday morning we finally visited Santa Monica pier and had a delicious seafood lunch. Then we drove around Santa Monica in the areas where Lydia might attend elementary school just to see if we could afford to live there and from what we saw...we can! :)

Today we took care of some errands, like changing the flat on the baby jogger (which I've used twice with the flat) and dropping off some clothes at Goodwill. After a delightful lunch at a Thai restaurant, we ate some ice cream while listening to some live jazz music at the marina. While walking down the pier, we saw sea lions frolicking in the water and pelicans patiently waiting for their next catch...a new discovery!

Mickey and Minnie Mouse were at the pier. Apparently Minnie has a Spanish accent; I know this because she informed me that "they welcomed tips.". :P
