Good Friday at the beach...







After spending yesterday at two dental surgeons, and still not being done... we had a little vacation at the Newport Beach today. We got there early in the morning because one of the surgeons at Orange County Microscopic Endodontists (good grief!) said that he might be able to work me in today for my second appointment. They wanted me to have my cell phone with me all day so that I could be "on call" for a possible appointment. At 1PM, they called and said that they would not be able to see me and I would have to come back in a few weeks instead. So... we spent the entire day at the beach and took tons of pictures and video.

First we walked up and down the entire Newport Pier and visited with the fishermen and pelicans. It was *way* too cold to swim.... as Jazzy found out when the tide came up a little on her feet and she started screaming. We spent the rest of the day walking up and down the boardwalk, getting ice cream and junk food so that we could keep getting change for the parking meter. $1.00 per hour parking.... and they only take quarters... and they were writing lots of parking tickets, too. The weather was perfect... 70 degrees... and the beach wasn't really crowded at all.

We had a great time, and maybe we'll come back in a couple of weeks.... depending on the scheduling. All of this just for one tooth... then lots of other teeth to take care of later.....
