Happy New Year 2008!!!

Carmel By The Sea is just that ... a really trendy village for the rich right on the ocean. Here's the Carmel beach at the bottom of Ocean Boulevard.

What attracted us was the interior, which is decorated in a very French style. Super food, service, and atmosphere.

And of course in California, they have pink dogs ...
