A Quick Launch In Carmel

We often stop by Morro Bay during our visits to California. Typically we drive 101 down to San Luis Obispo, but on this particular visit we decided to take Highway 1 (Pacific Coast Highway) and enjoy the drive.

Our first stop was Carmel By The Sea. We've visited the beach there before and I remember there was a nice wind. So We made it a point to stop and see if I can get some kite time.

Unfortunately the wind was not that strong and the beach was crowded. I set up and launched getting some air for a brief moment. As I packed it up, seagulls swarmed my back pack as well as a local chihuahua. I don't remember packing any food in it, but I'm sure there was something they sensed.

Well, I can at least say that I've launched a kite in Carmel.

We packed it up and headed to Cannery Row in Monterey for a little wine tasting at Baywood Cellars. Great place, friendly proprietor - highly recommended.
