Thursday April 3rd: Last night's bar hop is felt this morning but there is a great bistro up the road a bit with fresh coffee & bagels we are told. Breakfast outside in the sun on the bistro's patio is perfect. Today is take it easy day and we discuss the song we think we might do at the studio (Room Elephants) and then later sit on the boardwalk looking out into the Pacific, people watching and enjoying a lunch of fish & chips from The East Beach Grill. Sailboats, hang gliders, bikinis, skateborders/bike riders, sand & surf. I now understand why people love California. Later tonight we will meet songwriter producer Chris Tyng from the Grow Music Project for the first time. He picks us up at the hotel and takes us to dinner at The Seven Bar & Kitchen around 6PM to meet his friend & studio engineer Ryan who already has a table for us. They both agree we should record a different song called "Just Give Me Your Good Times" After dinner we drive about 40 minutes to his home & studio to meet his wife and producer of the GMP, Kristen and 1 of 2 sons and the family dog Ella. We then get a tour of the studio and outdoor area just a few walks down a stone stepped hill. Its a bit like heaven on earth packed with great modern & vintage equipment. The homestead also include four Alpaca and a Llama on a picturesque farm. Its dark out so we cant see the mountains in the far off distance. We are beat and go to sleep in private rooms by 11 pm on the second floor of Chris' Studio. Tomorrow we will start working on our song at 10am after a 9am breakfast.
