Went to the Santa Monica Airport to watch the planes landing and taking off, which they do with gratifying frequency. The Santa Monica Airport is said to be the busiest single-runway airport in the nation.
We tried the carousel on the Santa Monica Pier. Phoebe didn't want to ride on one of the horses, so we just went around and around in a standing position. The carousel seems worthy of a return visit though.
Then we went to the small aquarium under the Pier, which was greeted with more enthusiasm.
