First day = beauty

Before the "big storm" hits us, we decided to venture out and stretch our legs. We took a nice drive down PCH to look at the storm waves and then headed to Newport Beach's ecological preserve. It's a really big salt marsh with lots of birds. It's kinda surreal because it's this beautiful marsh with biking and running trails right in the middle of extreme wealth. Then as you are enjoying nature, big jumbo jets fly over your head because it's the area right next to the Orange County (John Wayne)airport.Because none of the rich people want to hear jet noise over their multi-million dollar homes, the pilots must cut the power way back after taking off and I can imagine it is a little unnerving.
