We had a big day today. We started early at Starbuck's in Visalia and drove 3 1/2 hours to one of the most beautiful places in the world- Pebble Beach for the 2010 U.S. OPEN. Gpa gave us strict instructions-17 mile drive is a must see!! Upon arriving at Pebble beach- the first sign we saw-" 17 mile drive will be closed to the public June 14-20".We worked our way down to the main entrance- made a wrong wrong turn or two and somehow ended up on the famous 17 mile drive-it was spectacular. We took a few pics, traveled 400 yards and parked in Lot 11-the parking attendent noticed we did not have a pass and said "no problem"-we boarded the shuttle- scalped tickets near the entrance and in we went- Abbey promptly got busted for having an i-pod
. The weather conditions were cool and breezy. We walked most of the 18 holes- maybe 4 miles total. We saw a lot of famous golfers- Phil Mickelson, Tom Watson, K.J.Choi, Retief Goosan, Jim Fuyrk, Sean O'Hair, David Duvall, Lee Westwood, Sergio Garcia, Rorry Sabbatini and many more. We bought a few memories at the gift shop and boarded the shuttle bus for a short trip back to the Buick. The U.S. Open was very very organized . On the way home Paul Baxley gave us the french word of the day-"Wei fei"- wi-fi. The Lakers returned to the comfort of The Staple's Center
and physically dominated the Celtics to advance to game 7 on Thursday- the game we have been anticipating. The Celtics may be without the services of their center -Perkins, who went down with a knee injury early in the game.
Lot's of fun_KADALAK
