Red Balloon Reflections (Weekend Reflections # 112)

Newport Beach, California (Balboa Fun Zone) Happy Veterans Day!


The tall thin things reflected in the middle balloon are palm trees and I'm the tall but not-so-thin thing next to them. :)

I'll be taking a break from blogging for about a month starting next week however Weekend Reflections will be pre-scheduled.


If needed, please click the link near the top right corner for Weekend Reflections instructions. Now, lets have some fun with Weekend Reflections!
