The ants go marching...

Well I decided to take a break from studying anatomy to update the blog. Greg and I have been really busy with school, but were excited for the three day weekend. On Saturday we stayed home and enjoyed a lazy day around the house, in fact it was a little too lazy. By the end of the day we had planned a trip for Sunday in which we would walk seven miles to and around Venice Beach and then back home. We woke up on Sunday put on our walking shoes and headed out. We stopped at a bagel place on the way and each got one bagel…one nice thing about a city is there is no shortness on fresh baked food! (This is also one bad thing about a city.) We walked by a building in the shape of giant binoculars which was fun and then up the beach to the Venice Pier. There is always a ton of fishermen on the pier and yesterday was no different except that they were actually catching fish! (Much to the dismay of the seal swimming down below.) We have had record temps the last couple of weeks and yesterday it was in the 80’s and several surfers took to the waves. On the way back we walked the Venice Canals and found a very cute three bedroom two bath house for rent…for $3300 a month. Not going to happen; but it was fun to look at it and it has its own dock which was fun. On the way back we both got pretty hot and tired and were happy when we got home and could get back into our PJ’s for a while and sip some ice tea that Greg made. Around sunset we headed out again up to The Promenade to get some groceries. The Promenade is really neat at night, it is all lit up and they had salsa dancing going on where anyone could join. There was an older couple there putting them all to shame…so much fun!!!!! Anyway now we are both hitting the books and getting ready for another week. Hope everyone is doing well!
