The day after Sarah and her mom went north for wine tasting, I was able to take the day and go to Santa Monica with them. We first walked down Ocean Ave. which is the highway that runs parallel to the ocean (other than the Pacific Coast Highway) and went to a Thai restaurant for some appetizers and drinks. After eating there, we walked down to the Santa Monica pier and had dinner and margaritas at a restaurant right at the very end of the pier. The pier is just about 100 years old and goes approximately 150 yards out into the ocean. It looks a lot like Coney Island or the heart of the Wildwood pier; it has a huge ferris wheel, a merry-go-round, a few other rides, lots of vendors selling t-shirts and art, carnival games, and lots of food like funnel cake, corn dogs, popcorn, etc. Santa Monica is our favorite city here. Definitely.
