A Day at the Beach

Well, today we played hooky and had breakfast at one of our favorite places,
The Cliffs, in Laguna.
When Heather was almost 2, she looked at the beach below us and said, "BIG sandbox!"
These guys were paddle surfing as we enjoyed our omelets.
After this picture, I took off my jacket and we enjoyed the lovely sunshine.
Near the restaurant are tiny shops with local artisans showing their wares. This shop is new and carried lots of Russian gifts. I got this set of 3 eggs with the Nativity painted on them. On the back of the cross are Mary, Joseph & Baby Jesus.
We drove down PCH a little and went in to look around Aliso Creek Inn.
Then we parked at Aliso Creek Beach Park and walked along the sand.
Look up at the mansion at the top!


After poking around for awhile, we sat in the car which was facing
the sea and did our Bible study lessons. :-)
On the way home we spotted a cute Gelato shop in Laguna and went in for a cup.
I got chocolate sorbet and Kirk got 2 scoops, coconut & chocolate Hazelnut-Yum!
