Trip to Irvine CA to see Erin

BIG TRIP TO MALIBU CREEK STATE PARK.
I found out MASH was filmed there, and THE PLANET OF THE APES.
We had a blast, drove down the Pacific Hwy 1, got stuck in a traffic jam,,,, spent an hour people watching from the car... we did get to see the ocean.
To Bright outside,,, I need my sunglasses!! Do you know how hard it is to take pictures of yourselves!!
We had to walk to the visitor center, about a mile. It couldn't be in the parking lot.
So on the way back we took a short cut to get back. Here we are crossing the raging river... didn't know I was going to have to hike out.
Don't loose your shoes!! Flip flops don't do good on loose stones.
Yes, glasses..
It was nice and cool there. I spent Wed & Thurs in Phx, and it was hot. I left for Irvine on Friday morning at 8 am.. yes, I got lost and it took me 8 hours to go 5.. but I did do some sight seeing on the way! (sure!).. In defense of my driving, I made it back in 5 hours.... lol
