Hello Monterey & Carmel!

I had a blast at Monterey/ Carmel. Below are highlights from the 2 day/ 1 night we were there. Great natural scene & very fancy food.


One reason why getting lost is so fun: you get to find treasures such as this! A pair of deers grazing along side of the road. At first, I thought the deers were statues because it was so still. After a min, they started moving and walked off.

Hot chocolate chip cookies. I liked it a lot because it had rolled oats in it that made it so hearty. A good thing to have when you are traveling around; I get hungry easily.




My bf ate the ice cream and ditched the cone. Who does that?!




Scenes from along side hwy 17. California is truly a gem because it offers so many natural scenery like this. I love how rich the coast line are with seaweed, crabs, hermit crabs, seals etc etc.














Napoli restaurant in Carmel. Alaskan salmon over noodles with asparagus, peas & garlic in creamy white wine sauce. The salmon was fantastic. I ate it flake by flake.



I cannot resist good coffee in cute cups.




Ending the day while watching the sunset at the beach. Perfecto.



Breakfast at a local diner. It was busy and I can tell that a lot of locals frequent that place. We had the poached eggs over turkey with avocado on an english muffin. I love breakfast food.


At Earthbound farm in Carmel. They grow/ sell organic food. It was situated in the heart of the mountain. Mountains surround this farm offering a breathtaking view. After visiting an organic farm, I appreciate organic food much more now.

I love the large wooden table and how it complements the surrounding.




Quite possibly the best salad I have ever had. Very very fresh.


I love California and am so excited to see more of this great state.
