Santa Monica Visit in Summer 2016

Happy New Year Everyone!  Sorry that I haven’t written in quite some time.  Life has been agonizingly busy, and I say agonizingly as you wouldn’t believe what I just went through – one of the worst moves of my life.  I will leave this story for another day, but needless to say I was not happy about moving – I also had to downsize, and pay double the rent!  😦

Anyway, onto happier memories from last year….and hoping this year will be better for me and for all of you.  We visited Santa Monica last summer, and I have had so much happen that I couldn’t even post my pictures until now.  Well, it’s better to do it now than deciding to do it five years from now.

We loved Santa Monica, it’s quite close to Los Angeles, and we were just in Santa Monica for a day, but in the Los Angeles area for nearly three days.  Isn’t it amazing that I live in San Diego, but don’t get up to Los Angeles that often any more, and that I have never visited Santa Monica until last year – and I’ve been in San Diego for almost 19 years!

Well, without further ado, here are some of my pictures:

This last picture is of main shopping street that is a block or two away from the beach.  I will share more of these pictures another time.  Well, that’s it for now, I hope you liked my pictures, and that you are already having an amazing year!
