Gone fishing...

What exactly I'm fishing for this morning I don't know, maybe I just like that entry title. I went for ride down to the wharf early this morning. I saw many out there fishing in the early Saturday morning. Why do I get up early on Saturday morning in a college town? For starters it's cooler in the morning and the mountain that the campus is on is no fun to surmount in the heat of the days here. There are also no cars or SUVs hooning down the mountain which gave me a chance to figure out the roads. I also needed a chance to erm... do some _study_ during the day! Hillel put on a really "hippi" Simchat Torah over the last two days... Some honest exercise was indeed in order to offset the last two days of festivities, shmoozing and religiously-sanctioned alcohol abuse! Here is a snap of the morning sun rising over the Pacific.

With scenery like this... why sleep in?

Fishmongers and quaint little tourist stores like this one line the wharf

Here are some nice pics that I somehow forgot to post... This is the boardwalk by night, it really feels like it is stuck in a 1920's time-warp.
