A Day At The Santa Monica Pier ( Please click here for pictures! Thanks)
-
I just love the beach. I love walking on the sand and feeling its warmth between my toes. I love walking along the edge of the water and having the cool waves splash against my legs. The beach is just refreshing.
To me, the best time to go to the beach is early afternoon, in the middle of the week, when everybody’s at work , and the beach is clear. Especially if your going to Santa Monica. That’s the best time to walk up and down the pier. No rush, no crowd, theres a nice cool breeze , and relaxing sun, and it’s all so lackadaisical.
And if your hungry, there are endsless restaurants to choose from, all of which serve deliscious seafood, and exoctic cuisine. Ahhh I love the beach..
Today, my mom and I decided to get out of the house and take a trip to Santa Monica pier- and we had so much fun!
First we stopped inside a fish market , because an unique sight caught my eye. As I approached the market, I realized what I saw were live lobsters, and crabs! How cool is that!
Then we had a mini photo shoot near the Route 66 sign.
Down the pier we saw a man with beautiful Parrots.
They were very friendly too!
Lastly we stopped at one of our favorite Pier restaurant Mariasol, which serves authentic Mexican cuisine.
My mom and I enjoyed fresh chips and salsa, andLatin music while we waited for the chicken fajitas we ordered, but let me tell you, they were well worth the wait!
After lunch, my mom and I watched the water for a while, and headed back down the pier, where we notced a school of trapeze artist flying through the air.
Today was such an amazing day, it sounds like something from a fairytale, but it’s true, we really did experience it, and we really enjoyed ourselves. You see it doesn’t take alot just to relax and have fun, sometimes, you just need to take a 20 minute road trip and relax with people you love.
