Venice canals
Full of gorgeous houses and gardens
And (without question) less expensive than traveling to the originals:o)
Venice beach
My bias is still toward Santa Monica but Venice is absolutely beautiful
Cass learning the cha cha cha at a local park
A vanilla latte @ Cafe Luxxe
And for non-coffee drinkers there was apricot tea
And (of course) there was a visit to our fave local spot
Santa Monica
Breathtaking
Come again soon Cass! I miss you already.
