it cost $2 to park (remember this is orange county - we don't pay to park, ever!!!) for one measly hour.... the next 15 minutes of which were spent walking at painfully slooow 4-year-old speed to the end of the pier.
andd the SECOND we got there, Danny needed to pee. "vewwy badwwy Mama" (arrghhh!!).we walked back painfully slowly to the restrooms - alas, they were closed for repairs. walked another agonizingly s-l-o-w 10 minutes to the opposite side of the pier to find the next set of restrooms - where were the filthiest, stinkiest, stickiest, unisex (of course), most grotesque, urine-soaked restrooms ever.... (and yes, i've been to Paris). oh and no sink.... and for the first time ever - no wipes in my purse! argghhh....................
seriously this is all why i love the beach so much. but we did get a picture or two, in the 15 minutes left between all that walking back and forth and the camera battery dying :) with the lensbaby no less - i have to give that thing a break, not only does it hurt my eyes like crazy but my left hand is developing carpal tunnel syndrome from it :)
sounds horrible, but the pics are lovely. did you wash your hands in the ocean?????
ReplyDeleteI have never used a lenbaby. seen them in catalogs and such...but never really sure what they are for.
OM word! we used the "the filthiest, stinkiest, stickiest, unisex (of course), most grotesque, urine-soaked restrooms ever...." On Saturday during the memorial weekend madness.. Holy cow! Peyton at 2yrs old said she had to go and once we walk into one she said "Oh, no I don't have to go anymore, NO!" At least after all that you did get some great shots. ;o)
ReplyDeleteVery, very cool pictures. The ones under the pier are my favorite.
ReplyDeleteI am so not a fan of beach restrooms..i dread hearing those words "mom, i have to pee"..dread it.
ReplyDeletei want to play with your lens baby....that way you can get a break from it, lol.
