July 2010

Long Beach Pike



In July we were sick. I was sick for weeks with what was possibly whooping cough. Todd's sickness luckily didn't overlap too much with the worst of mine. Anyway, we had to cancel our trip to Utah and Idaho. It was a bummer of a month.
Still, we did take the kids for two days to L.A. and try and make up for the lost "real" trip. We visited the L.A. Zoo, went to the Santa Monica Pier, Travel Town, Buca di Beppo's (yum) and then Long Beach Aquarium. Probably our last time trying to work one hotel room for 6 people.
Most memorable event was Truman's reaction upon seeing a naked boy "peeing" fountain at Buca di Beppo. He literally could not stop laughing, and he has a very infectious giggle.
