This time we got on the boat to Catalina which departed from Long Beach :)))) I Love Long Beach! The ride was sooo bumpy and took a little over an hour, nonetheless it was fun! The city of Avalon seems really small but there is actually tons of stuff to do. You can go bike riding through the city or rent a golf cart and see the city that way. You can go kayaking, there are tons of restaurants, bars and stores to shop at. There is also a museum that used to be a casino. And of course there are glass bottom boats that take you on short tours to see sea monsters...oops...I mean fish.
I would like to go back in the summer to try kayaking and explore the island a little more by bike. This time we rented a golf cart which was fun. We went up a wrong road and had to back up which was scary because we were on a hill. Basically it was like that scene from Austin Powers where he's trying to turn the cart around but just gets stuck in between the two walls. Seriously...IT WAS LIKE THAT. haha.
Getting off that bumpy ride and onto the Catalina Island pavement.
Catalina!!!!!
Of course I got a German beer ;)
I was so surprised to see pay phones! I haven't seen one in forever. The woman that was there told me that only the one on the left worked and you couldn't just put coins in it. You have to have some type of calling card. . . So much for a pay phone -__-
This was us getting back to Long Beach.
