Our last day on the California coast! We got up early because we had to get some stuff done before heading to Joshua Tree. We grabbed breakfast with Kevin and Dante at the Little Lion Cafe, a place with really good food, and really big dogs. Super random but two giant dogs about the size of a horse came with a family and they asked if they could sit outside. The restaurant reluctantly said sure, and after that point the family lost control of the dogs. One dog almost pulled the owner into the road in front of a car, later one dog walked into the restaurant (their heads standing would be above our heads sitting down), and both dogs would bark and jump at anyone that walked by. They took their food to go but it was entertaining/ridiculous. Leave dogs of that size at home.

After breakfast we stopped by the Sunset Cliffs, apparently the best sunset viewing spot in the city of it’s a clear day (which it never was). Our last stop in SD was La Jolla Cove, to see all the seals!
Sunset Cliffs
While it was tough to find parking, La Jolla was incredible! There were SO many seals, some little babies, and some that were the size of a car. Some waddled, while some just rolled around. It was very busy, but a very different experience being able to see all these seals in one place (that isn’t the zoo).
We also saw a ton of windmills on the way into the desert
We checked into our Airbnb and quickly hopped in the small pool. It is a dry heat, which is better, but it’s insanely hot here, so this small pool is going to be amazing to have the next few days. The property here is incredible - I’ll include some pictures in future blogs of the actual property, but she has a few spaces for guests to stay and a lot of communal desert space to explore. But keep your shoes on unless you want a cactus thorn in your foot. We wandered into town and stumbled upon an artsy area hosting a concert celebrating pride before getting dinner.
We headed back to our place and chatted with our host about the area and what she does. She’s a super interesting person that knows all the natural remedies to everything! Before calling it a night we filled the communal bath with water and chilled in it under the stars. Our host of course gave us Epsom salts and all the other bath goodies she had. After star gazing we called it a night and looked forward to the next few days here!
