This would probably be me if I was out surfing this day. Underwater, and not standing on the surfboard. 

Not a very big surfing day. The waves were about waist-high. The weather was overcast with the occasional break of sunshine. This was taken at a surf spot called County Line, which is located on near a county line. Go figure. My surfer was not in the water this particular day. Across the street from this beach is a restaurant that's called Neptune's Net. You usually see a lot of motorcycles there. One day when we were at this beach, we were trying to cross PCH, and were thwarted by a Ferrari convoy that was zooming down the highway. At least 50-75 Ferraris mingled with an occasional Lamborgini made the road really dangerous to cross. At first it was interesting, but then it just got annoying because there were so many cars now in the way between me and my car (my car had food in it). 

This is looking down from a park towards the beach--again in Santa Monica. 

Kind of makes you want to eat it? These are a few beach houses in Santa Monica. Believe it or not, these colors are actually pretty popular in some of the coastal towns. (Well, not that there are hundreds of these vividly painted houses, but there are many small clusters in a few towns). On second thought, I don't really know how many houses are painted these colors in California and I'm probably not going to find out because I don't think you or I are really that interested. Just know that if you see something like this, you can say, "Hey, I know of houses just like that in Santa Monica!"
