Wednesday, June 9, 2010 – Say California

Mickey Mouse surfboard at "The Wall" at Surfrider Beach, Malibu

Some places are pure California, and one of them is Surfrider Beach, just north of the Malibu Pier. This is where they filmed the Gidget movies and those teenage beach movies with Frankie Avalon and Annette Funicello – Beach Blanket Bingo and that sort of thing. And this is where each year they have the annual Call to the Wall – one of the largest invitational longboard surfing contests in the world. And this is the wall. And that's Mickey Mouse, another Southern California invention. Some things just say California.
