Dear Gram,
Much to our surprise, we discovered this weekend that Malibu is little more than half an hour from where we live!
It took us barely a week to go from EST to PST, but six weeks more to actually lay eyes on the mighty Pacific.
I found my calling in life: Professional surfing.
One of the surfers offered to let me stand on her board, but I decided I would perfect my technique before I do that.
Also: Where does the water go when you pour it into a hole in the sand? Is there some elaborately engineered drainage system under the beach, or what?
It was hard to go home. Mom and Dad said we'd be back soon.

My bathing suit is packed, and I'm ready to come see you! Could you check the expected temperatures January through December? I have walked the Atlantic surf-line at 20-degrees, so if you are game, I am! However, if you do go surfing, I will need to cheer you on from the shore. I am getting better at balancing a bicycle, but a surfboard would be a little beyond me.
I love you!
I guess now I know about the true reasons for your moving! Good reasons... I will have to think about them throughout winter (there actually exist places with less than 20 °C - and this is not the temperature of the water).
I am happy you emjoy your new home and surrounding! All the best from Claudia.
