We had a great opportunity to go and vacation for a few days in Carmel. It was our first family trip 🙂 which I thought was going to be a lot more challenging but ended up being one of the best trips. It was also the first time Bella got to see the ocean. Too bad she couldn’t tell us what she thought, but we are pretty sure she liked it, at least the sound, because she slept through quiet a bit of our walks on the beach. This trip was to celebrate our 5 year anniversary as well as to just get away and relax. We certainly hope we could stay there for at least a week and God willing we will next time, there is just something about that peaceful sound of the ocean that you can never get enough of. We stayed at a wonderful hotel that was located only 1.3 miles from the beach, that gave us easy access to go as much as we wanted. We also had a little shopping center across the street which was very cute, full of boutique shops and small restaurants. Barry and I enjoyed one of the best burgers we have ever had at RJ’s as well as one of the best ice creams and pizzas. I must admit we ate unhealthy, but boy did we have fun eating all the junk food, we are both working it off now by running and bicycling 🙂 Barry had a chance to go on a nice ride on his bike on the 17 mile road, he said it was gorgeous. Bella did absolutely amazing for being away from home, of course we had a few little crying and teething moments, but overall it was a very enjoyable trip, the one we will never forget, because we got to go with our daughter for the very first time.
