The Wedge


Due to a southern swell off of Tahiti all of Southern California was getting hit with huge waves yesterday and today.  The Wedge was definitely the place to be though because of it's 20+ foot waves.  We went and checked it out for a couple hours today and it was insane.  There were hundreds of people, photographers and news crews lined up and down the beach to watch the waves and the people crazy enough to ride them.  Luckily we could ride our bikes there because it's been bumper to bumper traffic here the whole day.  

The lifeguards were checking everyone who wanted to go in to make sure they had enough experience.  They were doing a great job with hundreds of rescues over the past few days.  An intense job for sure!

You can see one brave guy riding a wave here.
You can see the tiny dots of people at the bottom of this huge wave.  
We went back to Legoland again last week for some more fun.
They have these cool rooms there where the kids can just build and play with legos.  This part of the room is for building your own race car and racing them down ramps.  Jaxon loved it!
