Pismo beach - a short stop

Our road trip to round off 2015 had its first stop at Pismo beach. We had lunch at the pier and let the kids play in the beach and in the swing sets on the beach!

At first they were complaining about the "cold", but warmed up to the place. 

The beach was beautiful but the temperature at noon was a lot lower than what we were used to seeing along the coast for last week of December. 

The last time we stopped at Pismo beach was 10 years ago! 

after spending an hour there, we moved on towards Santa Barbara...
