Celebrating Sue's birthday in Laguna
A clue is in the coins!
Happy Birthday Celebrations
We head for Laguna Beach, about a thirty minute drive from our home, for a day of walking, talking and seeing the latest in art work on display. We first go to the Sawdust Festival followed by a walk through the Art-A-Fair and then down to the Pageant Of The Masters grounds.
We eat lunch at the Trivoli II restruant within the Art-A-Fair and have treats such as stuffed jalepeno's!
We have lunch at Tivoli Two
