Gorgeous day here in LA, of course. Hot, but not too hot, very blue sky, a bit of wind off the ocean...perfect day for running! So while everyone else hung out at their house, I went for what turned out to be a six-mile run/walk, down a nice greenway from Hermosa Beach to Manhattan Beach, to Peet's Coffee for iced green tea and some coffee for our friends, then back along the Strand, next to the beach. After walking for about 6.5 hours last night at Knott's Scary Farm, we were pretty wiped out, so we mostly just hung out today. Had excellent Thai for dinner, with Pinkberry yogurt for dessert. The one in Hermosa Beach just opened last night, and I can see why it's so popular. Good stuff, really tastes like frozen yogurt and not ice cream. Dan got his eyebrows threaded, which was kind of traumatic, but looks very nice. Actually, his eyebrows don't look much different.
Knott's was lots of fun - we went on a huge rollercoaster, the Ghost Rider, and I actually really enjoyed it, went on a couple of other rides, including a log flume that was pretty soothing except when it wasn't, and went through 13 different haunted houses/mazes, each with a different theme. In between all of the rides and mazes, costumed characters, mostly variations on zombie clowns, walked around and jumped out at people. Fog machines pumped out fog, and the whole thing was lots of fun, and very crowded after about 9 pm or so.
