California... Day 5... Part 1 of 2...

On our last day of shows Chance was looking as regal as ever.


After the show... Cayenne asked her older brother if they should play "bitey-face".


And Chance decided they shall. This went on for a good ten minutes.


In case I confused anyone, we call Chance "the wag" and "Waggy" because his tail goes "flip-flip-flip-flip-flip" when he is happy.

Wag and his cousin Phoebe used the fountain for a family photo op.


And Wag's younger sister, Cayenne, figured it was a nice shot... so why not :)


Although the sky was gray by the show grounds, it was beautiful just forty minutes away at Huntington Beach.


This beach is famous for its surf and the competitions that are held here. I had no idea how close to the shore the drilling rigs were.


The pier is a main attraction but the Wag was not welcomed by local police. When will they realize that if my dogs are not welcome then my money must not be welcome either?

Ok, what would a vacation be without food? We had fantastic burritos and margaritas. I finally got to eat at both Jack-in-the-Box and In-Out burger. JITB was delicious and IO was on par with Long Island's very own All American.

But we took a chance (no pun intended) and tried Papa Joe's Pizza. You have to remember that I'm from NY and I love my NY pizza... but, it was actually quite good! And not only did I like it...


But my wife liked it...


And so did the Wag!


Remember... where I go, my dog goes... and if you say no, I'll spend my ducketts elsewhere. The trip rounds out tomorrow. See you then...
