Catalina Canceled.

Our big adventure planned with Big Dude’s parents was a day trip to Catalina Island.  We had our ferry reservations and our island tour reservations, our lunch packed and our camera bags stuffed, our excitement level high.  We arrived at the harbor to discover the ferry was canceled.  Because Wind. 

So we defaulted to Laguna Beach.  Where it was also windy.  We explored the Laguna Art Museum, an art gallery, a couple stores, and the beautiful beach pathway.  It wasn’t Catalina, but it wasn’t a bad alternative.  I love where we live.



Downstairs was a neat collection of paintings of Los Angeles “City Life” 1930-1950s.  I’m tremendously partial to watercolors.



And here’s where they waited for me to finish meandering…



And here’s where they waited for me when I last-minute decided to meander through the gift shop on my way out …



More waiting.  Look alike much? 



Hey, Look!  Jesus and Mary are displayed amongst the superheroes…



Still windy.



Many new beautiful art installations throughout downtown …



So, not Catalina.  But not bad.
