All that being said, again, it hurts not to be able to photograph what I am actually seeing on my adventures. The good news is that we went to a local tourist spot - the Redondo Beach Pier - and there are a lot of pictures of it on the internet that I can grab and insert here. Yes, it really looks like this:

Without the writing in the sky, of course.




The funny thing is that these guys were really there today, walking on the pier. We could get right up to them... within touching distance. As wild pelicans, they do not approve of being pet, of course, but people were able to make contact and they didn't try to fly away. They did try to bite, though.

Pelican. Fresh from the sea. I wonder if they taste like chicken or just like Chicken of the Sea?

I wanna go there! Can we put it on the itinerary for May? Please, huh, pretty please? Can we, can we, can we?
Hi Laura, You came down to my territory. We do not live too far from Redondo Pier and we attend concerts there during the summer and the fireworks on the 4th of July. There is a boardwalk section too down some steps where there is a fish market and some little shops and bars and even a little Greek cafe.
One of our favorite walking places is along the strand above the beach next to the homes and condos..We can walk my dog there and still hear the sound of the surf and enjoy the sunsets and feel at peace.
You can do whale watching if you drive a little further to the Palos Verdes Interpretive Center. we have a couple of lighthouses in our area too....
