Jonas' Island

One of the fun parts about living in Long Beach is knowing how much of the city has been used as backdrop for television and movies. One of our favorite pieces of trivia is that the marina where we go to the farmer's market every weekend was where they filmed the opening sequence of "Gilligan's Island," the part where the castaways depart for their "three-hour tour." In recent weeks, we've taken Jonas to the market and walked along the marina to check out the boats. Jonas has slept through most of it, no doubt dreaming about how we would have gotten off that island. Or, perhaps, all the delicious milk he could have extracted from all those coconuts.
