San Buenaventura Beach Outreach

Post by aboy »

Hi everyone, I post here the pictures of my first outreach of 2014. :hamster: :hamster:

The outreach was in San Buenaventura Beach CA. :rockon: :rockon: was really windy but really clear sky :rockon: :rockon:



























Here my Mom :cheer:





Here I'm showing the Sun to a family from Argentina... they love the sun :woohoo:














At the end they ask me for the moon so, I did..
In the day time the moon looks nice but not like the at night time.





I really love the place and my family too.

I miss the special Sun Glasses to give to the public but hope next time I can get some of them.
