Long Beach, CAlifornia

TERRY AND I ENJOYED A BELATED CELEBRATION WITH OUR DAUGHTER, LANA, IN LONG BEACH, CALIFORNIA. 

WE DROVE OUT YESTERDAY AND HAD A NICE TOUR OF LANA AND JEFF’S APARTMENT WHICH IS BEAUTIFUL . LANA HAS BEEN WORKING OUT AND ON A TIGHT EATING REGIME AND SHE HAS ALREADY LOST 11 POUNDS. I AM SO PROUD OF HER BUT SHE ALWAYS LOOKS GORGEOUS. 

THE 4 OF US HAD A NICE PUB LUNCH OF CAULIFLOWER BITES,  BRUSSEL SPROUTS, AND SALMON SALADS BEFORE WE RETURNED TO PLAY ONE OF MY FAVOURITE GAMES : ” CODENAMES “. WHAT FUN ! 

THAT NIGHT WE HAD ANOTHER YUMMY MEAL AT ‘OPEN SESAME’ , GREAT LEBANESE FOOD . I WAS SURPRISED TO SEE A FELLOW PROP HIS PIANO UP ON A BRICK ON THE BACK OF HIS TRUCK AND START TO PLAY ! 

TODAY WE WALKED AROUND THE TRULY LONG BEACH OF LONG BEACH.  WE STOPPED TO GRAB COFFEES AND ALL CRACKED UP AT THE SIGN ON THE RESTAURANT WHICH SAID IT WAS ‘WORLD FAMOUS LOCALLY’ ….HA HA.

I LOVED CHECKING OUT ALL THE GREAT BUILDINGS IN THE AREA AND THE WEATHER HAS BEEN PERFECT. 

THEN ALL OF US DROVE TO ” ORANGE ” ….TO BE CONTINUED…..
