<p>Santa Monica is a very easy-going, fun beach. Normally one would have to be very geeky to play chess instead of rollerskating or volleyball, but considering the sunny, easy-going character of the beach, actually a relaxed chess game fits right in.

And I am geeky enough that I would gladly play chess here myself. The problem is that I am nowhere as good as these pros.
