Dave keeps a pedometer app on his phone and it told us we walked approximately 28 miles over our two days in Disney! So, naturally, when considering what to do on our non-Disney day we figured a 12 mile bike ride would be perfect for our aching legs and backs! ;)
While Mom, Dad and the girls spent one last day in the Disney parks, we headed over to the nearby Huntington Beach and rented some beach cruiser bikes for the day. There is an awesome path that runs right along the beach for several miles. It was a gorgeous ride with incredible scenery the entire time, which is probably why we were surprised to find we had ridden 6 miles pretty quickly! We were smart to take the path north and ride against the strong winds on the first leg of the trip. With the wind at our backs, the trip back was much easier.
We even rode under the iconic pier at one point.
For dinner we walked to the end of that pier and ate at the famous Ruby's, where every seat has an ocean view. After all those miles walked and biked, I felt totally justified in consuming an insane amount of calories in these BBQ, bacon, onion ring, cheeseburger sliders! :)
