A lot is going on in our little lives at present and at a months notice our son & daughter in law invited us over to California for a special occasion and we didn’t hesitate to accept and the weeks flew by and I just hadn’t got out to do any real photography, so it will just be images from our first two days over here in America. Even these may not be brilliant shots as with a long layover in Newark Airport our journey took twenty four hours from the time we got up in Edinburgh until the time we entered their apartment. Plus the beast that is called “jet lag”.
27th.
Awake early and a simple walk along the cliff top of Santa Monica.
The pier and beach with a few people on it already, plus the ship in the haze , coming out of Los Angeles.
Being watched by the LAPD. the word got about, us British type need watching.
We never take a trip over here without photographing my sister’s favourite flower.
28th.
It is Saturday , so it must be street market day in Santa Monica, a weekly site that hardly ever changes , but I still love seeing the variety of items available, mostly organic as well.
Very popular.
No uniformaty of shapes in the veg just very fresh and yummy looking.
Fruit galore.
As for the flowers an outstanding amount of choice and all so fresh.
Chinese lanterns still up from the New Year celebrations.
Had to include this Tesla Truck for a certain young man who happens to like it.
So folks that is it for the shortest month, another week or so here so expect a few more shots far from the Scottish West Coast on the American West Coast.
