Beautiful Carmel

 Our 24th Anniversary and Kara's birthday were celebrated in Carmel last weekend...the weather was glorious and much warmer than predicted which made going to the doggy beach heavenly.  Maggi our almost ten year old beagle had never been to the beach before, but she had a fun time and we had fun watching her reactions!

 She was not too keen about the water, but found it quite amusing to be walking on the sand and being around so many other dogs.

 Frank had fun also as he carried the towels in case Maggi got cold from being wet, but it was so sunny and warm as she strolled along the beach and dried up.

 Her first taste of beach life!!  I don't know about this, she says!!

 But Maggi had a great day...even met another Beagle dog and they looked at each other as if they knew one another...it was so cute!

 We had a work out too walking along the beach...I wish we could do this everyday!

 When we got back to our hotel, they had the patio fire place burning for their wine tasting hour...our timing was pretty good!

 Maggi, on the other hand, was sacked out from her super beach walk...tired, happy puppy!

 The sunset was beautiful as we sat sipping our wine from our little balcony...totally glowing!!

The weekend went so fast!  I hope we can go back to Carmel again soon!!
