It has been
blazing HOT out for so long! Lui and I finally made it to the beach (neither of us worked last Sunday) and here's what we got - overcast sky, but we didn't mind. It was nice to finally have some cool, fall weather. We drove out to crowded, toursisty Balboa Island with lots of little shops but didn't stop; we decided to take the ferry across to the peninsula since Lui had never been on it. Here's a pic of one of the other two ferrys passing us:

Lui decided to get out of the ferry and sit on the side of the boat but I stayed in the car. Don't let that look on his face fool you - he was having fun! It only cost $1.50/person to cross and you don't have to back track your way through the crowded Balboa Island to experience all the good restaurants on the peninsula.

The added bonus was that we called Lui's sister-in-law to RSVP for her baby shower and ironically her, her hubby and Lui's mom were all in the area. We met up for dinner at a seafood restaurant where I tried a salad with romaine lettuce which had been cooked on a grill - something new but very good!
