Babu and I have been quite busy the past few days. After our time in Los Angeles, we drove through Hollywood and Beverly Hills and made our way to the coast of California. Our trip took us to several beaches including Malibu, Santa Monica, Hermosa Beach, and Redondo Beach. We worked hard on our tans at each beach and soaked up plenty of sun while taking occasional dips in the cool ocean water. In Malibu, we even found time to visit the
Adamson House, a beautiful Malibu home built in the Spanish style. We also spent two nights in a hotel near Redondo Beach which allowed me to take morning runs along the beach from Hermosa to Redondo.
After spending a few days touring a little bit of the coast and beaches, Babu and I headed back to Tucson. Of course, we couldn't resist taking a little detour at the
Joshua Tree National Park. (We only spent a few hours at Joshua Tree but Babu is sure to visit it again soon and do more hiking there.)
Today, was my last full day in Tucson. Babu and I decided to spend the morning hiking in
Sabino Canyon near Tucson. Temperatures in Tucson reached 113 degrees this afternoon. It was a hot day so we tried to stay cool by relaxing at the pool and visiting the gym.
Below is a little photo montage of our travels from the past few days...
