California Vacation Day 2

Saturday, June 27th: 

We went to the gas station next to the hotel which had a big store and we filled up gas and bought ourselves breakfast we could eat in the car. I had doughnuts mmm. We stopped in Barstow at the train store. Candi bought a ty beanie boo for Leila's collection. We didn't stay long. We got to our hotel named the Paradise Inn and Suites in Culver City around 4pm. It's a nice place and the room had a sectional couch the younger kids slept on. Candi and Jaxon were freaked out by the mold growing on the ceiling of the bathroom. We drove to Santa Monica town and parked then walked to the pier and beach. The town was crowded az with people. It's a hot spot for Saturdays. The temps were only in the 70's with a breeze blowing but it felt cold after being in the hot desert. We walked to the end of the pier and looked around. Got myself a couple pins in gift stores. We walked down to the beach for a bit. Leila and Erana had their togs on and got a bit wet. They like the beach. Mina took photos and videos and stuff with her ipod. We left around 8pm. We went to a Panda Express and ate dinner then got stuff from a grocery store named Ralph's. They forgot toothbrushes and had to buy more. Went back to hotel and went to sleep. It's my Dad's birthday today. He would have turned 75.
