If so, do try and watch the BBC adaptation, with Colin Firth and Jennifer Earle (that's not how you spell her surname but I can't remember the right spelling!). It's the BEST one.

Sounds like you did get out to eat and browse in some fun shops. As you say Jane, the scenery is certainly different from the Summer crowd and noise....those days will return though!<br /><br />My weekend on the West coast was chilly too, and heavy rain much of Sat. when we drove to Carmel.

It is very busy in the summer but I only go in the winter, walking on the sandy beach in the icy wind, dressed warmly, then retreating back to a warm cabin or motorhome to enjoy a warm beverage and thaw out my nose.Lori Ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10775116608698555225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6702005723584006500.post-63374482428080815452011-02-24T09:39:41.116-06:002011-02-24T09:39:41.116-06:00What a glorius time.

Love the blue color and it sounds like your 3 days where a bliss. Sweetheart I and I had 2 days together, a rare occasion, but that's why I enjoyed myself even more.
