Couple’s Getaway to Monterey!

Oh my gosh, such an amazing place. Damian asked me what I liked with vacations and I told him I’m a scenery gal. He suggested Monterey, CA. Me being the non traveler chose to trust his suggestion. After all, he’s been to all but 2 states.

He chose the hotel, booked the flights, reserved the car... I did nothing. And that was great because I am horrible at making decisions that affect others! 🤦‍♀️ We flew out on June 21st to San Francisco. Drove the coast down to Monterey. Our hotel, Trade Winds, was in Carmel. We were waking distance from a beach and a town of shops.

We visited a few state parks, we hiked to a waterfall, we saw the Golden Gate bridge and we ate some really good food. The weather was absolutely amazing. It was windy, but not too windy, the temperature didn't get above 61 degrees.

Oh and neither one of us brought our work laptops. :) We made no plans ahead of time. Which means we got to sleep in as long as we wanted to, but we were able to get in all of the recommended stops, including a beautiful beach sunset. It really was a great couples getaway.
