Hop on a flight to California and enjoy the charm and relaxation of Carmel, CA.
How to Get There: After a beautiful trip to
Napa/Sonoma, we headed south for a quick drive to Carmel, CA. The drive town the Pacific Coast Highway has to be the most spectacular in the country.
Where to Stay: We stayed in town at the Normandy Inn. This no frills hotel has a great location for viewing the art, eating at the restaurants and shopping around town. There's free breakfast, but it is pretty limited.

| Giant onion rings from 400 Degrees |
 |
| How about that sundae? Find it at 400 Degrees. |
400 Degrees serves delicious burgers. They have the freshest ingredients and it is an awesome family restaurant.
Check out breakfast at
Little Swiss Cafe.
Stop into
Sushi Heaven for a healthy lunch.
Where to Drink: You can get a Carmel wine pass and go on a wine walk before dinner. The wines aren't really comparable to the wine we drank in Napa/Sonoma, but they are still pretty decent.

| #babycapcook liked the bath tub in Dawn's Dream tasting room. |
We stopped into Dawn's Dream, Figge Cellars, and Caraccioli Cellars.
We also drove inland and checked out Jarman. Their wine was the best in Carmel.
What to Do: HIKING! The hiking is phenomenal. We loved Big Sur and Point Lobos State Reserve. Wear long pants because there is lots of poison oak on trails. It is a town of relaxation and leisure. Walk around the charming streets. Swing into art galleries. Shop in local stores. Stroll along the beach.
