Little getaway to an old hangout

Anji at Redondo Beach Pier

Had a nice trip down memory lane yesterday, strolling on the Redondo Beach Pier with Ryan. Hadn’t been there in ages! I think the pier has been completely rebuilt since last I visited; I seem to recall an aged wooden pier while now it’s virtually all concrete. Still, the rad old-school game place is intact, packed full of antique games as well as newer ones. From wooden horse races to electronic dance pads, the whole history of public game machines is there! I played a few rounds of skee ball, a rip roaring fun game of air hockey, and tried my hand (or should say “feet”?) at a new fangled dance game – boy did I stink at that! It was so foggy down there that I felt like I had taken a trip up north somewhere, like Santa Cruz. Also checked out a few of filming locations from The OC, like the “The Pier Diner” and “The Bait Shop”. (That’s it in back there below…) Fun times!
