Dockweiler Beach, Playa Del Rey, California, USA

As the waves came crashing to shore and the sun began to set, I sat there fascinated by the movement of the water. Even though the clouds covered much of the sun, the orange-red color of the sky reflected on the water. Dockweiler Beach is one of the few places around Southern California that allows for bonfires. The whole time we were there (this was last month), numerous planes flew over the beach because it is in the direct pathway of flights leaving LAX. I thought about how I wanted to be on the planes...V Australia, Southwest, Delta...and I wondered where in the world they were off to!
