Backpacking trip: Santa Cruz, Thursday

[lovemykilt]

It's another quietly gorgeous day in Santa Cruz, with highs in the upper sixties and partly cloudy skies. Perfect weather to hit the water! Just hope no one's forgetting the sunscreen.

[ooc: here comes the OCD Second to last day, OMG!]

The Hostel

[lovemykilt]

Santa Cruz Hostel. There's drama among the surfers from New Zealand. A guy from Australia, who seems to have been there forever, has made popcorn.

The beach

They're a little bit emptier today -- apparently the light, breezy weather doesn't scream beach at too many people.

Just means there's more room for you!

Jack feared no weather as he staked out a spot on the beach to enjoy the sights.

Other people may not enjoy the sight of that much Jack on display in his Speedos.

The Boardwalk

[lovemykilt]

Santa Cruz Boardwalk. This one is more crowded than it's been. Thursday means it's almost the weekend, after all, and some people have started relaxing early.

The Harbor

[lovemykilt]

Santa Cruz Harbor. Mrs. Priestly has been generous enough to charter a sailboat for those interested graduates in the afternoon -- the Chardonnay II. There's pizza, sodas, music, and a tour of the coast line as the Chardonnay makes its way out onto the water for the afternoon.

Dinah was all for the sailboat thing. Woooo! Also, pizza.

Downtown

[lovemykilt]

Shops and museums and restaurants galore, for those less interested in being outside, all day.

[the grill and crystal shop are moddable, today, as I'm still swimming through the UK budget]
