This month, my “10 on 10” project was “A Day in Manhattan Beach”! From my home in El Segundo, it is exactly 1.6 miles to the beach. Since it’s so close, I’m privileged to see the ocean several times a week, usually on one of my daily runs. My kids also love to go play in the sand with their trucks and go for bike rides along “The Strand.” One of our favorite destinations in Manhattan Beach, the next town south from El Segundo.
We love the little Roundhouse Aquarium at the end of the pier, watching the surfers, and sometimes locking up our bicycles and heading up the hill to the central plaza. A couple of weeks ago, with my Sister-In-Law out for a visit from Pennsylvania, we treated her to a day doing some of our favorite things! The bonus is that it was a Tuesday, the day of the weekly Manhattan Beach Farmer’s Market!
We enjoyed the warm February day on our bikes, watching the waves, picking out some organic produce, and feasting on some tasty bites. . . definitely a perfect SoCal day!
