Waves crashing that is, don’t worry no one got hurt in the process of writing this new post. Once again we rented a nifty rental car and head out to the roads of California. We headed to the lovely city of Carmel. The part i actually thought was the best was the absolutely breathtaking view from the highway. We took Highway 1, which is right along the Pacific coast so we got beautiful views on our entire trip up. (yes, i took plenty of pictures) At one stop i even think we saw penguins,, okay now that i look at the pictures i think they're just look-a-likes.. but hey i got excited. This was actually a three hour car trip that i actually didn’t mind, and that’s definitely a first...i hate long car rides, and long car rides for me qualify as 30 minutes, lol, but this was totally worth it. anywhos, once we reached Carmel, and no it is not a chewy tasty treat, its pronounced Car-Mell, it was very cute. In my mother’s words, “its so quaint!” and she is right, lots of flowers, shops, cafes, and little houses perfectly decorated. We found a nice little restaurant called Basil, mmm mmm good, their flour-less chocolate cake is to die for! the frosting was as thick as the cake, and lets just say it was a tall delectable cake. After we stuffed ourselves, we decided to walk off the weight by doing what we do best, shopping! Unfortunately, there were very little purchases. I, however, fell in LOVE with a Coach bag..yeahh i know crazy right? but it was gorgeous, a soft purple leather bag with lots of pockets and nifty compartments, and i do love my compartments! Oh and the best part was it was only $139.00...to bad i only had $50...So if anyone wants to be super generous give it to me as a back to school, labor day, fall, halloween, thanksgiving, or christmas gift..i’d be very glad to accept ;), i’ll just give you the details! After our browsing we did some driving, and drove past Pebble Beach Golf Course and the ocean, which was beautiful! Also the houses along the coast are so cute.. i could just put them in my pocket..literally, some of them were tiny! Oh i don’t think i mentioned this before, but Carmel is a dog town, almost everyone has dogs, tiny, big, furry, hairless, adorable, not so adorable, you name it! So a shout out to our wittle annie boo, woof! oh and i can’t forget independent Pumpkin...well she’s pumpkin. but don’t worry babies, mamma will be home soon! Wait, i just sent a shout out to two animals that will have no access to this, and most importantly can’t read..Obviously i think i need some sleep after this long day..only one more full day left!
