For the second year in a row, we travelled down to Port of Long Beach for the annual Lobsterfest. We stuffed our faces with lobster flown in fresh from Maine, big bowls of shrimp, and other festival foods. We weren’t alone, though, because this year there were lines that were unheard of last year. Not only did we have to wait in a line for 20 minutes just to enter the festival, but then to get our lobster meal we had to wait in a seemingly never-ending line for over half an hour. Word must have leaked since last year that this is the place to be…
We also did our traditional 15-minute scuba dive in the portable swimming pool set up there by a local scuba diving school…and this time we gave in. Ricky and I both took advantage of their discounted tuition rate and signed up for their scuba certification course. I’ll keep you updated how it’s going over the next few months, as well as a running total of how much we’ve spent. So far:
1/2 of tuition + books/supplies: $120
Running total: $120.
