Scarlett loves Carmel!

Wednesday

There is nothing that Scarlett loves more than a weekend in charming and dog friendly Carmel!

She insists we stay at the Cypress Inn where she enjoys all the “creature comforts” the hotel has to offer…

she gets to dine with us at the hotel…

and sleep with us…

go for fun walks…

and shop at fabulous boutiques…

go to the fancy pet store, Diggedy Dog, to get lots of treats (she wanted this bed but I assured her that it didn’t go with our decor)…

hang out with cool friends…

and sit outside at her favorite restaurant for lunch, The Bench, at the Pebble Beach Hotel…

have a drink before dinner at the hotel…

go to her new favorite restaurant in Carmel, La Balena, on Junipero, a cute little rustic Italian that is getting rave reviews…

Everything was delicious, but you have to try the fried chicken!!!

Her favorite thing to do is play on the beach! Our new spot is Ribera Beach. From Carmel, take 1 south and turn right on Ribera Road, right onto Cll la Cruz and park the car. Follow the walking trail down to the beach.

It’s stunning!!! It’s just 5 minutes by car or you can walk from town south for about 25 minutes.

And after a long day of shopping and playing on the beach…

she loves to go wine tasting at the Wrath Tasting Room in the Carmel Plaza and The Cheese Shop next door to get a little something to go with her tastings…
