Santa Monica Pier

Mimi and Mark (Mike's mom and Stepdad) visited from Chicago for Amanda's birthday and stayed until the Wednesday after. On Sunday we took them to Santa Monica and walked along the beach, had lunch on the pier and basically enjoying the lovely weather we had that weekend.

First stop was the adult playground where there are rings, bars and other big things people use for exercise. Mike showing Amanda what he can do:

And Mark's turn...

On the pier - a metal dolphin/bank, Mike helped Amanda put some change in it.
