California Dreamin’

The recent west coast weather has been much more ‘California’ than ‘Merseyside’, and it seems that lots of people are getting in touch with their inner beach bum. M and I walked along the coast from Hoylake to West Kirby and back tonight and saw these folks enjoying an al fresco yoga class as the sun descended. Mellow!

And, just to undermine the good vibes, why not enjoy ‘(I Hate) California Girls’ by the ever-excellent Magnetic Fields https://youtube.com/watch?v=Ryt1PY8R1-s ?
