Our family was blessed to spend the day with some new friends over the weekend. They offered to show us around a bit, since we have moved to the Bay area, we have not ventured out too much, too to Mr. Darling working. We took the day off...and drove up the coast...We stopped at a couple view points to snap some pictures o the beautiful scenery and our family as well.
Then we stopped to see Carmel Beach...It was beautiful. The sand was soft and white, the water pure blue and the trees on the beach were whimsical. We spent a good hour just taking it all in.
After the beach we went to a park for some refreshment, fellowship and food.
Then walked through some of the shops.
After that we went through Monterey Bay and Pacific Grove,
where we spent some time hanging out by the water.
A huge highlight of the day was spending over an hour watching all the birds,
the Nettle Jellyfish and the loud barking Sea Lions. It was quite entertaining.
After hours of driving around, we had dinner and headed home.
It was a great day getting to know our surroundings and new friends.
It was a perfect close to Summertime.
