That’s right.
We went to the beach again on Sunday.
I’m really sorry, Nicole. You’re welcome to visit anytime.
We took a longer way around. Mulholland Hwy instead of Malibu Canyon. Much windier and higher. But totally surrounded by trees. It was really pretty.
And, when we came out the other side of the mountain, this is what we saw.
So gorgeous that Andrew had to stop. Which he rarely does before the final destination.
Once we got through to PCH, we ended up at Leo Carrillo again. Same beach as last time. It’s so secluded there. Since we go in the morning, there’s hardly any people at all.
It was a lot sunnier than the last couple times. We both got a little burned. But just a little.
We’ve got all sorts of plans for the beach. A regular morning thing. And when we live closer, we’ll go more often, and we’ll go early. And we’ll take coffee in to-go cups and fresh fruit in a cooler for breakfast.
It’s going to be heavenly.
Just to Andrew’s right is a cave/tunnel …
Which you look through to see this …
Ok this next one … I was sitting up on a rock … minding my own business … when this wave came out of nowhere and splashed way up! …. I took this REALLY quickly before pulling my camera away from the water. I’ve got mad skills. No cameras were splashed in the making of this photo.
We saw quite a few Woody’s … so cool.
So SoCal.
I’m currently loving vintage cars A LOT. I want to take pics of each one I see.
We left the beach around noon-ish and drove to Studio City so Andrew could show me a bit of the house where he has been helping do some recording.
It’s just off of Laurel Canyon, so we drove through Studio City.
I love driving by big houses. I love looking at houses. In case you guys haven’t caught on, I’m slightly obsessed with buying a house.
All these are taken from our moving car, all on Laurel Canyon.
I love the doors, I love the trees, I love the windows.
so gorgeous.
Not that I want to live right on Laurel Cyn, but you know.
After our little drive, on the way home we stopped for lunch.
Frozen Yogurt.
Oh my goodness so good. This is on my list of places to take out-of-town guests.
It’s self-serve and you pay by the weight (which means you can get as little or as much as you want).
Yogurt like Dark Chocolate and Strawberry, but also Georgia Peach and Cake Batter.
The toppings include the expected (marshmallows, chocolate chips, coconut, etc), the pleasant surprise (fresh fruit) and the totally unexpected (fruity pebbles cereal, cookie dough chunks).
Did I say yet how good?
Did I say yet, this is what I had for lunch?
The final result -
Swirled Georgia Peach and Kiwi-Strawberry Sorbet, topped with fresh kiwi and fresh strawberries, as well as little yogurt chips.
Yum.
So, when you come visit us – this is where we’ll go!



































Gorgeous pictures.
andrew looks like a pirate in that cave! i will have to take pics of all the fun indoor things we do here.
You’ll have to have Shawn and Nicole bring Emolyn over for her first beach experience and you can take pictures.
I think it’s interesting that you never really liked the beach until now…I’m glad you’re close by though so you can enjoy it.
OH. MY. GOSH.
Seriously, the best post ever!!
LOVE all your pics. Such amazing pics!
I gotta go look at them again.
And thanks for sharing your day with us desert dwellers!
I also love drinving around looking at houses, ecspecially, big old houses. Love it. Better out of the city for sure.
