Fun on the Naples Island Canals-Long Beach California Real Estate

Naples Island – Long Beach California

Life and Fun on the Naples Italianesque Canals

Saturday afternoon, August 30, 2008

 

Another glorious day in Long Beach California.  Does this ever get boring?  Not!  Today I showed duplexes in Belmont Shore and Seal Beach, dropped my client off and cruised around Naples Island taking pictures on the canals. 

 

Sylvia Jumps off of Naples Bridge

I met 2 lovely young ladies, Sophia and Sylvia, who were sunning themselves on one of the bridges.  They were kind enough to agree to let me photograph their sunny faces, so cute!  Imagine my surprise when they asked me “Do you want to see us jump off of the bridge?”  Well, they didn’t wait for an answer, they just went ahead and jumped off of the bridge!  Then dragged themselves out of the canal at a convenient dock. 

 

The 2 adorable little river rats were having a ball.  I cracked up laughing.  Just had to get pictures of this to share. 2 little hams, didn’t mind, they wanted to make sure I got them mid air.  So, here they are, mid-air…  They are looking forward to seeing their pictures here.  Girls I hope you like them. 

 

Apparently the girls are well known for their antics as most of the neighbors are used to seeing them do this often. 

 

Sophia Jumps off of Naples BridgeThere were people swimming and kayaking below and boats passing through, I was very relieved to notice the girls taking extra precautions to make certain the coast was cleared for a safe landing. 


It looked like so much fun, if I were still a kid, I’d have jumped in with them, lol…

 

I hope you enjoy the video of this afternoons pictures. 


Best,


Laurie
