The day after Christmas my dad and brother played golf at Pebble Beach in the morning. My mom and I got to sleep in and then test drive a car courtesy of the hotel! We got a red Lexus IS 350C. It was red too. Sound familiar? The only difference was it was a 2011 convertible. We had it for two hours, so we planned on shopping in Carmel, but there was NO parking in the entire city. Luckily, there was another stop I wanted to make in Carmel!
In high school, I read a Meg Cabot book series that took place in Carmel. The main character went to school at an old mission named after Junipero Serra. It was closed, but I still took some nice shots of the facade and garden.
Since there was no parking near the shops, we went back to the hotel for a little bit while the guys finished golfing. We did, however, still have time to drive on the scenic 17 mile drive. Then we made Dad find parking in Carmel so we could look at the shops before dinner. We tried a mexi-cali grill or something. It was good, but Mexican food in Texas is better.
We also drove down Cannery Row, the area made popular by John Steinbeck's novel of the same name. We almost went to see Mission Impossible in that area, but the wait was too long so we went back to the hotel and crashed into bed instead.
