The mighty Pacific

GREAT SUCCESS, WAY BOOK, WAY EVERYTHING, CAN'T BELIEVE WE'RE HERE, and all that jazz. Well this morning we got up and forged through LA traffic - my gosh at 10 in the morning you wouldn't believe how many cars were on the freeway. Ahh but we cruised across the tangle of highways and got spit out on the Santa Monica Boulevard. Within a short time the Mighty Pacific was in our sights. A beautiful sunny day - a whole lot cooler than in the desert - we had our jackets flapping in the wind and all sorts of California songs twirlling around our helmets. We proceeded to the Pacific Coast Highway - it is everything you picture it to be....flanked by beautiful mountain villas on one side (just waiting for a mud slide into the ocean) and all sorts of condos, restaurants, and beaches on the other. In Malibu (doesn't that just sound like you could jump on a surf board and ride the waves) we ate at Duke's restaurant - right on the water - watched a couple of dolphins playing - I swear it was like we were in a movie. And then we proceeded to the end of the highway and then the process of going back towards all that traffic. Well that will be tomorrow....tonight we are at Thousand Oaks Ca and are reliving a wonderful trip up the coast. From here on in it will be Eastward Bound - California Flame and surfing Big Dog
