We found our first IHOP this morning so had a massive pancake and cooked breakfast - way too much food.  Then we drove along the coast and stopped at Malibu beach for a couple of hours so Zoe could dig in the sand and get her feet wet in the cold Pacific Ocean.  Drove on to UCLA to buy some hoodies in the store - had to use a 14 lane highway which was solid with traffic - welcome to LA!  Then visited the pier at Santa Monica which was heaving but Zoe went on the Big Wheel.  Finally we drove to our house near Hollywood for the next 3 nights.  Nice, but the mozzies are starting to bite.
