Carmel-By-the-Sea!

What a lovely name for a town!
(Sorry about this again, but I need to post some photos of our short getaway to Carmel.  I don't want to forget it as you never know when you will need some positive memories to keep you going!)

I enjoyed the clouds on the way there and the way back.  We've been having so many wonderful cloud displays lately.

We stayed at the La Playa Hotel--a historic hotel full of so much charm it was oozing.    Built in 1905 by a husband as a mansion for his bride, the daughter of the Ghirardelli chocolate family.  Here is the entrance:

A view of the back:
and the back entrance:
A view to the room we were in:
Two views out our window.  Yup, that's the ocean just two blocks away:
And I loved the flowers!
A quick walk and there was the beautiful beach:


I had fun watching the surfers:
Thanks for letting me record my memory!
