Although I was still sick from Yosemite and Olivia was not feeling tip top either, we, along with Ryan, decided to visit our friend Jonathan in Malibu. We attended his church, ate a veganized potluck, then mountain biked to the filming site of the television show Mash at Malibu State Creek Park. We had fun sitting in the old cars and looking at the old helicopter and tent sites. Then we pedaled our way back through the rocky and almost forest-like trail--very unusual for southern California.
That night we snarfed food and played Rook at Jonathan's apartment before Olivia and I had to drive back home. I was horrified when we made our first stop for gas and I discovered that our bike tires were missing. We called the boys and they asked if we had reported the robbery. Olivia asked, "Who would we report to?" They never answered and didn't call back for an hour or so. Meanwhile, Olivia and I tried not to think how disgusted we were at humanity. Finally the guys called to tell us that unbelievably they had found our tires by a dumpster. We were so grateful, and Olivia promised to buy them frozen yogurt when they got back in town.
Only days later and much after Olivia had taken them for their reward did we learn that THEY were the ones who had snatched our tires. We were so angry that we had been dooped. We did learn that we must always lock our bike tires or put them inside our vehicles...even just to protect them from pesky guy friends. Grrrr!!!

Listening to the Dueling Orchestras one Last Time
A Last Look at the Tourists in the Bridge of Sighs before entering the jail
Then a walk back to San Marco's to watch the dueling orchestras!
