Nuns On the Beach

C came down from Stanford today. Only a year and a half until he gets his PhD…woohoo! Anyway, we drove down to Carmel River State Beach and had quite an ordeal even getting down to the water because the main path was gone. It must have been washed away during the big storms we had a while back. We saw lots of people scuba diving today. We also saw sea lions swimming very close to shore and pelicans diving for fish. The sand at Carmel River State Beach is more like tiny pebbles than like sand.

Across the road from the beach is the Carmelite Monastery…home to cloistered nuns. It’s a very tranquil and beautiful place with walking paths and lovely gardens. I asked K if he’d mind if I became a nun so I could go live there. Haha.

The Monastery has a beautiful garden.
