Autumn in Orange County

Today we headed up to Dana Point for their annual Tall Ships Festival. It's kind of a funny name, really, given the heavy pirate presence. Something like "Pirate Festival" would have been a better name. Our own little pirate came wearing his pirate hat and both kids were accompanied by their stuffed pirate ducks. Afterwards we continued north along 101 and found ourselves in Balboa Island (Newport Beach). It's a dense community - the most dense in O.C.? - and a fun spot to walk around. Before leaving we each picked out a special treat for the drive home. For this mama, it was the frozen chocolate-covered banana -- yum!

Note: We found Autumn on Balboa Island today (above)!
