Happy New Year everyone.

We had a great holiday break visiting family and friends in southern California.  There is always lots to see and do in that part of the world aside from the theme parks, the beach and dessert are not far and fascinating.  

Huntington Beach with a touch of smog on the horizon.

Palm trees everywhere !   We visited Bolsa Chicha Ecological center, it is still at early stages, not huge but worth checking out and cheering them on to reclaiming the tidal waterways.
