Seaside Anniversary

On Friday, brian1789 and I celebrated our 5th anniversary with a date at Half Moon Bay. We stayed over the night before at the beautiful San Benito House, right in the little downtown. In the morning, we went to their Garden Deli Cafe to pick up sandwiches made with their homemade incredible bread, getting an extra loaf to bring home to the family. Here's my sandwich... cheese and avocado and sprouts and mayo and mustard and lettuce and tomato, on olive-walnut bread. So heavenly!



We went geocaching along the coast, and weren't deterred by the weekday parks closures... we just parked outside the locked gate, went around it, and hiked in. We were rewarded by a lovely stretch of beach to picnic on, which we had almost to ourselves... just 2 other couples visible for miles.
