Malibu!

This post has a sound track [press play if it appears, otherwise click here], taken from Cowabunga! The Surf Box.

I happened to be listening to that song on the train ride back, which was on the San Bernardino / Riverside line (one of the lyrics is “From Balboa to Anaheim / San Bernardino to Riverside / All the kids in all L.A. / Love to hear Dick Dale play”). Pretty cool.

On Saturday, after a trip to Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills in search of the wears (wares?) of one Baruch Shemtov (see pictures below) Eric and I went to Zuma Beach, in Malibu.

I hope that’s not real fur. If memory serves the brown one was around $250 and the gray one was around $150. It was Eric’s idea.

Is that first song over? Here’s another.

(Both are by Dick Dale & the Del-Tones)

Zuma Beach was beautiful. So beautiful, I didn’t take any pictures. Fortunately, Flickr has way more and better pictures of Zuma Beach than my small digital camera could provide, so here’s a sampling (they’re all Creative Commons-licensed):

The water was really, really cold, but lots of fun.
