Venice Beach and Santa Monica Pier

World Known Venice Beach. That's where Ronnie and Viki took us to today. It was how I expected it to be. Maybe a bit to windy today for my liking. But still warm and lots of little shopping places. But, with all the strength in my body I stopped myself from buying anything there. Actually, I was going to buy a really cool sweatshirt that I have seen a couple of times before already and really want. But they either didn't have the color I wanted or the size I need. I guess for the best. It stopped me from spending money again. Hard though. There were so many stores there with sunglasses and tees and jewelry. But... I made it... hihi. Of course we saw (the fake) Jimmy Hendrix there. On roller blades. He's in a lot of movies shot at Venice Beach. Because he is always there. Playing his guitar, roller blading along the boardwalk. And the bums there provided us with some entertainment as well. Bum Fight!!!! Not way exciting though. We kept waiting for them to lash out at each other. But no, just a whole lotta F*ck you/get the f*ck away/it's a f*cking free boardwalk/I f*cking know it's a f*cking free boardwalk, but get the f*ck away from me/f*ck you/no f*ck you.... I swear, these people have a great vocabulary. Very bright and original, haha.

And we saw Muscle Beach of course. The weightlifters gym out side on the beach. I expect you all to have heard of this before. But ya, a whole lotta guys there that aren't even able to tie there own shoelaces because of all the muscles. Or keep there arms beside their bodies because of all the muscles in there arms and there owh so trained ugly, way to big abs.
























After that we got the car and drove down the road to World Famous Santa Monica Pier. I couldn't believe Shardae was all shocked about the fact that they had a roller coaster ride and ferris wheel and what not there. That's what Santa Monica Pier is all about. That's what the pier is known for. Without that it would be just another pier. Not the longest or the widest or the prettiest in the prettiest part of the West Coast, but just another pier. But then again. She never was that interested in American Culture. Except if it were Indians that is. And she got her fill of that down at Venice Beach. Half of the shops and stands there where filled with Indian stuff. But still, I thought she would know what to expect, seeing as in she watches so many movies and stuff. Because ya, Santa Monica Pier is shown in a whole lotta Movies and TV-Series. We didn't go onto any rides or anything though. The first reason being, the wind was picking up and it was getting quit cold. We defiantly weren't dressed for a windy environment. And the second reason was, Pica came with us. There little Yorkshire Terrier. Very Cute!!!

Going to watch a movie now. Army of Darkness. Ronnie just came back from getting Ice cream at Baskin Robins. Which is the best Ice cream ever. And yet, I told him I didn't want any. Stupid little me. But ya. Doing good today. Only had one cheeseburger for lunch and skipped the one for dinner, haha. Had a nice tropical salad for dinner. Just not hungry today. Could be because I'm so damn burned. Yes ladies and gentlemen... I am burnt. For the first time in my life, really sunburned. Not just a little red on the nose, for one day. But my legs and tummy are sore and hurting and red and ya, burnt. So, I guess its payback for all the times I snickered when other people where complaining about being burnt. Should have put sunblock on everywhere and not just my nose and shoulders I guess. With this damn wind you just don't notice when you burn. And lying on a raft in the pool all day sure as hell doesn't help. My own damn fault. Right the movie started already. I'm missing the beginning. Damn... gotta go....
