Then we rented a boat for an hour and a half and took it out in the bay around Balboa and Ledu Island..that was a blast.

And then towards the end of our trip around the harbor, we ran into these guys who were more than happy to strike a pose...

glad to see you guys are having a good time down there. If you get a chance....there is some pretty good shpping up hwy 1 @ the huntington beach pier.....the street that runs into it....pretty cool little surf shops with lots of kids clothes.......if you go, check out the rv park that is next to that power plant......we stayed there a couple years ago....not too bad, but seeing that power plant every day was like :ahhhhh:

Just got in from the fair and my dogs are killn' me! All in all it was a great day, no kids were lost, no fights with the kids or wife and the lines on the rides were not too bad. Today was kids day so admission was free and the wristbands for rides were $20.00..ride all U want until 8pm. The wife and I did some walking around after the kids left with my SIL and MIL. Bought some cool stuff, some Kettle Corn...Turkey Legs and Funnel Cakes.

I think every "As seen on TV" product is there, but I still wanna see Billy Mays there doing his skit for Kaboom or Oxi Clean :D

Headed back to the beach tomorrow morning, so the pictures will be forthcoming. If the weather is not permitting, we are going to head down to Sea World for the day.

Yesterday was a day at the beach! I don't know if I put this in perspective for you or not, but it's not just my family here on vacation. My SIL and her 5 kids, BIL his 3 kids, My wife and 3 kids...so with that said, my BIL took all the kids to get ice cream yesterday, leaving the SIL, MIL, wife and me alone...that was the most relaxing hour I've had in a long time. Okay, here are some pictures from the shore...my new telephoto lense really came in handy....enjoy

A seal that was body surfing with the kids...I didn't like it so much seeing how it's a sharks favorite food
