We stayed overnight at the Regency Inn in Huntington Beach (later changed to Best Western Surf City), which is where we spent our first night in America when we came over from Germany to get married back in 1994. So, while this woman might look kinda nerdy at other times, at the ocean, she looks downright sexy and cute.

This is the Richard Nixon Library & Birthplace in Yorba Linda, California. This bulletproof Ford Lincoln was built in the 1960s and was used by Presidents Lyndon Johnson, Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter, and Ronald Reagan.

This is also the final resting place of our 37th president, with his wife, Pat Nixon, on his right. With this visit, it was time to leave for our 376-mile drive home to Scottsdale, Arizona.
