Blinks is our new weekly meme that showcases photos that we have taken. We’ll be running it every Saturday. It will be a perfect mesh for our love for writing and pictures, be it a one-word title, a simple caption or a photo-essay.

Enjoy!

Aaaah, Santa Monica!

I’ve always wanted to live in So.Cal because of the weather, the beaches and the irrational fangirl reason that hazehung knows about.

Captain Awesome and Little Princess were with me the last time I was there. We rode this huge wheel, played games and won prizes. We were there on a weekday, we almost had the entire place to ourselves.

Today, I got an invitation for my cousin’s graduation celebration in Riverside. It would be great to take the road trip and visit sunny Santa Monica again. I wish I had my three favorite people in the world to enjoy it with.

Trivia: Did you know that Santa Monica Pier’s Pacific Wheel is solar-powered? Yep! It’s the only one of its kind in the world!
