Kate and Anne

We picked them up at the time they were due in and returned to #322. After lunch....BLTA's [the A is for avacado] we went to the beach @ Playa del Rey for a walk and a sit. We were entertained by two dolphins. After a brief visit to the pier @ Manhatten Beach we met Casey and John @ Baby Blue Ribs, followed by sunset @ Venice Beach.

Friday we drove with Casey and John to Long Beach for whale watching aboard the Caroline. Success with many sightings of a huge fin whale [Fin whales are the second largest..only smaller than blue whales]. But disappointingly we sighted no dolphins.

Today John and I started the day playing the back nine @ the Santa Anita Golf Course with Mike Stangl and his friend Tom. Mike, John and I met Casey, Janet, Kate and Anne @ the Huntington where we were treated to a tour of the cactus gardens by Olga Stangl who has been a docent there for the passed seven years. Late lunch in Pasedina's old town @ Villa Sorriso followed by ice cream [of course].

Tonight we are off to dinner @ Casey and John's.
