I Went to California! (Post 1/3).

This Post: Mostly Irvine.

Visiting California: Post 1 out of 3:

I went to California. And, of course, that means I took photos. Lots of photos. And, as a result, that also means that I’m going to post them here on this blog.

The Trip There:

There isn’t much to see. After all, it’s literally just a bunch of the I-10 and more of the I-10, so here’s a couple photos:

I-10 in Arizona.

Welcome to California sign.

Windmills in Palm Springs

Photos in California

This post doesn’t really have that many photos. Most of the ones I’m posting today are from Irvine. Rest assured that the next California post should have plenty more photos, including some dinosaur photos.

Canal of some kind. The ones here in Texas don’t look as nice.

Power line pole. There’s a bird on it.

The next day, I did take some more photos, though, again, only a few:

Irvine Regional Park.

And, since we were in Irvine, we went to that Ferris wheel at that shopping center over there.

Make all the excuses you want, but October is far too early to put up a Christmas tree.

And, of course, dinner, which, according to my journal, is “meatballs, peas, and mashed potatoes with that gravy stuff and the lingonberry jelly”. It was quite delicious, however, they have discontinued the lingonberry juice boxes. I liked those :(.

Not California Stuff.

Agathae has decided to moult. I thought she’d finished but apparently not. It’s not worth asking her why. She doesn’t answer questions like that. Felicitas has grown in some new feathers. And Josephine hasn’t been that nice to some of the chickens lately.
