attack of the lady bugs


It was the weirdest thing. Me and my boyfriend took a little vacation to Huntington Beach and after the longest bike ride of my life(we decided to take cruisers all the way from our condo to the pier and it was like 5 miles against the wind) I couldn't wait to lay down on the sand. It was a beautiful day, about 80 degrees and the beach was packed. So we lay down and start putting sun screen on and all the sudden I am feeling a few bugs on me. I hate bugs more then anything, but it was a relief that i looked down and it was only a lady bug. Well one lady bug turned into 100 in a matter of seconds. We look around us and we are, as well as tons of other people around us are surrounded by thousands of lady bugs. We are swatting them left and right and I stood up freaking out and trying to run from them yelling at my boyfriend to get them away. I have never been so terrified of lady bugs in my life. They wouldn't leave and when they land on you, they stick. It was awful I almost had a panic attack, we had to migrate about a mile away to get away from them. I have never heard about anything like that it it was definitely an experience Ill never forget. I have probably seen about 10 lady bugs my whole life, and that day I saw thousands and never want to see another one again!
