So we were on the road and coffee shop bound at a quarter to seven. After coffee for the body, we set out looking for the best Malibu beach setup we could find. Point Dooms was the call and proved to be a perfect fit.
We climbed over volcanic rock out around the point and found an idyllic private stretch of beach flanked by cliffs on the shore and a pounding surf thumping into shore. We all found tidal pools filled with crabs, mussels and other unidentified sea creatures.
What started out as a foggy morning soon burned off to a gorgeous late morning and afternoon. I got on the board and got a thorough thrashing by the surf, but managed a few good rides. On the beach, the boys played and played... Intense kite fights were had, the victorious jolly roger dragon kite proudly flew above Lemon Cello for hours afterward, japanese and british army men squared off on the dunes, we found an assortment of small insect creatures to chase, and best of all we were joined by gobmom wobbin after lunch.
Wobbin checking in on the whereabouts of all her fancy neighbors:
Other random events included a visit by a very old gentlemen accompanied by two very strange looking Vietnamese boys singing songs and voraciously text messaging from heir vintage 1983 golf cart. Not sure what was going on there, but it definitely added to the Malibu beach atmosphere.
Speaking of atmosphere, Malibu has a string of very excellent characters... For people watching i think it might be tough to beat... Especially if you are interested in the current plastic surgery plays and or you want to see underage drivers behind the wheel of hundred thousand dollar cars at every turn. The man in the golf cart singing with his Asian boy choir being a side note.
Wrapped up nine hours on the beach with great food in town and the kids playing at the Malibu Country Market playgrounds.
