California, Here We Come - Part 3, Catalina Island


On Tuesday morning, Alan, Zach, and I rode the Catalina Express over to colorful Catalina Island, for a two-day stay . . .











It was just a short walk up the hill to our hotel, the Hotel St. Lauren . . . 





We wanted to check out the Casino (which, it turns out, never was a gambling hall) . . . 






I loved the big Art Deco murals on the outside walls of the Casino . . . 



















We enjoyed the rooftop patio of the Hotel St. Lauren, with a wonderful view of the city of Avalon . . . 










The fountains, decorative tilework, and the other colorful sights along the Avalon Walkway . . .
