December, 2006

I needed a break from the cold of San Francisco, and boy did Santa Monica deliver. I took a detour here before visiting a friend of mine in Beverly Hills, and boy was it worth it. It was actually HOT on this day. Beleive it or not, my jacket was too much for me, so I was walking around in a t-shirt and jeans. It was pure heaven, and made me long for the days when I lived here.

	This is a view of the beach, and Venice in the distance from the pier.		Opposite side of the pier, this is a view of Santa Monica. That tall white building is right where Wilshire hits Ocean.
	The pier itself! This photo could almost be filed under "filming locations", as this pier has appeared in numerous TV shows and movies. I recently saw it in an episode of Alias, and I know it was in like half of the episodes of Baywatch.		And here she is, Santa Monica herself. Well, a statue of her at least.
