Pizza Time In Carmel-By-The-Sea!

This was during our trip to the coast. We stopped in a superb little town called Carmel-By-The-Sea. It's one of those very memorable places we visited. Around 4,000 people live there.

Situated on the Monterey Peninsula, Carmel is known for its natural scenery and rich artistic history. In 1906, the San Francisco Call devoted a full page to the "artists, writers and poets at Carmel-by-the-Sea", and in 1910 it reported that 60 percent of Carmel's houses were built by citizens who were "devoting their lives to work connected to the aesthetic arts."

Unusual laws

Though often mistakenly thought of as an urban legend, the municipal code prohibits wearing shoes having heels taller than 2 inches (5.1 cm) or with a base of less than 1 square inch (6.5 cm2) unless the wearer has obtained a permit for them. (Source)

The restaurant we went to is called Julia's Vegetarian. It was delicious. They were really into mushrooms. They were everywhere on the wall as pictures and also advertising that they were buying wild mushroom.

I would love to have a place like this where I live. A friend of mine once invited me to go wild mushroom hunting and we ended up picking many pounds of chanterelle mushrooms which would have been worth in the hundreds of dollars. Mmm precious chanterelle!

@karensuestudios, @acromott and I ended up having a very good time there! We highly recommend this cool restaurant. We also highly enjoyed Carmel-By-The-Sea!

I'm Leaving For Europe Tomorrow!

I'm leaving for Europe tomorrow and I should be landing in Brussels on Sunday to reconnect with @karensuestudios and meet with @roxane, @oroger and most probably many other Steemians! I can't wait!
