Finn Blaxland

California: Staying at the Beach (May, 2008)

We are off to see the wizard. Finn is all set on the US Air flight to LA LA land with his trusty car seat and his video iPod at the ready.

First morning after a very long trip that had him get to the hotel after midnight PST, Finn wakes up and orders pancakes. The video iPod is now connected to the TV.

When traveling, Finn loves to bring his treasure chest.

After breakfast, he looks down from the hotel to the ocean. It's time to hit the beach. But not until I drop my train down four stories into the lobby below. Lucky he did not actually HIT the hotel manager who picked up Spenser.

The famous Venice bike/roller skating path.

Finn keeps his sweater on as it's a little chilly.

Artsy shot.

On the boards. This has Baywatch written ALL over it.

The merry-go-round on the Santa Monica pier was featured in many movies including The Sting.

Another day and Finn is up before his mother. He has no problem using his mom as a piece of furniture.

Now she's up. Breakfast does wonders!

Let's spend today relaxing in the pool!

Too much pool can be exhausting for a young lad.

Zzzzzzzz. Jenny's stuck...though luckily waiters bring lunch right over.

Later Finn jumps back in for some afternoon pool action.

He and mommy watch the sun go down.

Sweet sunset with the pier in the background.

Dinner in the fancy hotel restaurant with the funny noises.

Finn tolerates the high class dining atmosphere.

And a bath before bed. Finn knows high class really means being able to watch Nickelodeon in the bath.

Photography Notes

Following the pancake theme, Finn's favorite pancakes are the ones the kind hispanic man brings him every morning in his hotel suite.
