Mini-Lili decided to take her favourite Lego person, "Skaterdude" with us on our recent trip to California. She was inspired by Andrew Whyte's Leg OGrapher, a Lego character who likes to take pictures. Mini-Lili put her own spin on the photos and adventure of Skaterdude.
Early morning finds Skaterdude heading out for a surf at Pismo Beach. He is waving to his friends who are out waiting for that perfect wave. Skaterdude is wearing his wetsuit- it is southern California in March. Pismo Beach is a beautiful long stretch of sand where you can run or walk for miles. Surfing is very popular as well as seal and otter spotting.
Skaterdude apparently couldn't handle that last wave! No Lego was hurt in the making of this photo.
We headed up tp Avila Beach where Skaterdude decided to go for a swim. I wouldn't recommend it since the water is still very cold at that time of year. I would recommend walking on any one of the three piers that jet out into the ocean.
We drove up the Pacific Coast Highway to Carmel-by-the-sea. The drive is one of the most scenic drives I have driven on. We stopped at many scenic viewpoints and the seal colony. We had a picnic where Skaterdude enjoyed his ice-cream.
One of my favourite cities in southern California has to be San Luis Obispo. It is one of California's oldest communities. The centre of town has a beautiful mission, Mission San Luis Obispo de Tolosa. Skaterdude found a crèche when he spent some time with baby Jesus.
Skaterdude started his mornings with a cup of coffee. We buy beans from Trader Joe's everytime we are in the USA. Why can we not find that kind of quality of beans here in Calgary?
Mini-Lili had a great time and I think Skaterdude enjoyed his first trip to California. Perhaps a trip to France and Italy is in his near future...
