Catalina for a day


Avalon Harbor
 We took the ferry out for a day to visit this enchanting island 26 miles across the channel.
Interesting story about this house.
This house was built by a man who was wanting to bring his wife to be to the island. She got tired of waiting for the house to be completed and ran off with another man. The builder forbid women to enter the house after it was completed and it is said that he died a single man.
 
Gold Fish?
 These gold fish were large enough to be seen from the dock. This picture was taken from a pier in the harbor. They were abundant.
Beach is a premium

One of three beaches in Avalon. The water was too cold for me. Adam and Krissi did brave it though and got in some snorkeling.

I guess you didn't store up any of that heat from the motorcycle riding to offset the cold water ;)

Looks like ya'll are having way too much fun.
