John and Jim's Visit, Cont.

Here's our little cottage in Carmel - it was very cozy and comfortable, and had a dutch door! Here's Lee and John, enjoying morning coffee on Sunday, before we began our Sunday.

After breakfast, we enjoyed a walk around Carmel. Here's a shot of John and Lee at a little shopping mall there. We did some shopping in Carmel, too. John found some great items to take home as gifts, Lee found a jacket, and I found some capris! Success!

When we left Carmel, we drove to Capitola to take in their Classic Car show. It was pretty amazing - lots of really neat old cars and any car buffs would have loved it. We looked for a Studebaker to take a picture for Peter, but there were none.

Seals, sunning themselves on the rocks at Pt. Lobos.

Enjoying a glass of wine on the deck. Note that there is NO sun! But it wasn't cold, so we enjoyed sitting out there, and so did Rex.

On Thursday evening we all walked up to the Distillery for a G&T out on their deck. The sun came out and it was a beautiful, sunny afternoon. The patio at the Distillery is pet-friendly, so Rex was able to go along.

We all had something to drink - even Rex, who had his own glass of ice water!

Here we are all are at Sushi Main Street! Jim took us out to dinner to celebrate my birthday. It was John's first time at a Japanese restaurant, but he was very brave - even had the hot sake! The sushi was fabulous, as usual. John and Jim both had the box dinners, and we all had green tea ice cream for dessert - YUM!

This picture is courtesy of John! He set up the timer, so that we were all able to be in the picture. We had such a good time with Jim and John, and hated to see their visits come to an end. Jim left on Friday afternoon, and John left Friday night, and then the house seemed so empty and quiet!

So, now you are all caught up! We're getting ready to take a road trip from Moss Beach to Canada, beginning on July 3rd, with lots of stops along the way. Stay tuned for the pictorial travelogue!
