Post a CommentLong Beach is always trying to come up with ways to attract tourists (and tourist dollars ~ a lot of competition 'round here) ~ they could take a hint from Santa Monica pier and Venice beach. Street musicans get rousted by police, yet they lend flavor to those popular cities.
Great pics.
Good shots, Doc! :oD
I remember going on that Big Wheel.
Love it!!!
Love it! You capture the end of the trail excitement in the photos.

Cool, looks like fun. I have been to the other end of Route 66.
