Newport Beach Bike Ride

We drove up to Newport Beach this morning and biked around the very tidy and upscale beach community of Balboa Island.

 This is the famous Newport Wedge - famous for huge summer swell waves that practically pound body surfers, body boarders, and crazy board surfers into "dry" sand.

There were some kids out, but the waves were small.  It was fun for me to at least see this spot in person.

 We rode around checking out the island homes and then took the ferry across to Little Balboa Island.

 Uh oh! We became terribly seasick on the 3 minute ride.

I spotted this VW stretch limo - someone's metalwork creation.  Then we came home.
