Flat Stanley Goes to the Beach

I have been having a great time in Los Angeles since last week. These are photos of my visit to Redondo Beach. I played in the sand, watched the sunset on the Pacific, and had a lot of fun in the arcade, The Fun Factory. Like my new shades?
Check out my photos after the jump!
This is near the breakwall.

This is the crazy Fun Factory! It is really loud in here.

This is one of Santa's angrier reindeer.

This is one of the calmer horses.

Now this horse has personality!

What are you rebelling against, Tom and Jerry?
"What'dya got?"

Who wants to see-saw? What are you talking about? That clown's not staring at you!

I don't know why, but "goblet toss" makes me giggle.

Skeeball rules!

See you guys next week!
