Skateboard Park

After watching surfers yesterday for about an hour and a half, and soaking up the sun and salt air, we walked up the boardwalk along Venice Beach to Muscle Beach, and a bit beyond that was this amazing skateboard park. It is fairly new, and the railings around the "pits" were lined with spectators. The skateboarders were mesmerizing to watch - I probably couldn't even stand up on one of these boards! They seemed to race around the bowls and up and over the tops and back down effortlessly. Just astounding to watch. I guess we spent an hour and a half here as well, me with my eye glued to the viewfinder, and the camera pointed at this one spot, waiting for skaters, and shadows to change on the surface of the concrete bowls.
