Surfing at the Hermosa Pier

I was at the Hermosa Beach pier for the GI Joe Pier-to-Pier Run/Walk this morning. Once the runners and walkers headed off towards the Manhattan Beach pier I decided to walk down to the shore and check out the morning surf. The surf was pretty decent sized and it looked like the surfers were enjoying themselves. The overcast skies and slight wind made for some great contrasts. I will have to go through and edit some of these and make a video with them.

GI Joe Pier-to-Pier Run/Walk

This morning I headed out to Hermosa Beach to take photos of the 3rd Annual GI Joe Pier-to-Pier Run/Walk. Participants run or walk from the Hermosa Beach pier to the Manhattan Beach pier and back again. From what I gather, this run started off as the graduation ceremony for the GI Joe Bootcamp which operates out of Manhattan Beach. Eventually the City of Hermosa Beach asked Joe to make it a community event. It was a bit chilly this morning, so that may explain the low turnout, but the participants all seemed to enjoy the run along the shore.

A Gu Gu Sushi Milestone

It is no secret that my favorite place to get sushi is at Gu Gu Sushi & Roll in Hermosa Beach. I have been dining there for almost two years, and have yet to leave disappointed. In fact, one of the things I enjoy the most about Gu Gu, is that it really does not matter what I order, I know it is going to be good.

Gu Gu has close to 200 various rolls and sashimi available. They have multiple menus and I decided I wanted to try every roll they offered, so I took one of their menus and started at the top. There are close to 80 rolls on this particular menu and I have now tried them all. Next up, their laminated menu. I have already tried most of the rolls on that menu, but I know I missed some, so I will start at the top and work my way through it again. I am totally looking forward to this.

Kumpai.
