​A VISIT TO L.A., THEN BACK HOME

...Continued from previous post:
     On Saturday, April 16, Tom and I flew from Honolulu to Los Angeles to spend a week with our daughter, son-in-law, and grand daughters.
         The following day was Easter, which I expect was ​what gave me the idea to have for the girls, if not an Easter egg hunt, an Easter gift hunt. I wrapped about a dozen little gifts that I'd brought then hid them around the house for the girls to find.

      The Easter gift hunt was a grand success.     

      In the afternoon we went to the nearby town of El Segundo to a pretty outdoor mall called The Point,

 ...where we joined the crowd out enjoying the sunshine, blue skies, and balmy weather.

     We had lunch at a burger spot called Hopdaddy,

...where I had a kale salad topped with an outstanding burger cooked exactly the way I like it: as rare as is permitted by law.

     After lunch we drove back to Manhattan Beach where we took a stroll along the seaside walkway known as the Strand.

      Among the scenery were some of the impressive homes along the Strand,

...and the cute neighborhoods of walking streets that run into the Strand.

     The next day, Monday, it was back to school, back to work, back to all the daily things,

...the ordinary things,

...that are, somehow, so dear.

     When the following Saturday rolled around it was back to the airport for Tom and I,

...then back home, 'til next time.
