Went to Laguna Nigel with Eileen, early in our relationship. Her whole family came to a Christmas dinner: Father Edwin, Mother Mary, brothers Tony and Martin.
We also visited my cousin Rachel (Fratto at the time, I believe), saw some relatives at her house.
We drove into Hollywood, and Venice Beach. A few shots from there.
I remember being disoriented, but in a pleasant way, by California weather in December. Cool but nice, snow a distant memory, green (irrigated) things growing everywhere. Big roads, clean cars, exotic cars.
