A Getaway Just the Two of Us

This little getaway was a long time coming.  It's been over two years since just Brandon and I have gone anywhere for more than a day.  This little trip was short but we got an entire 29 hours just the two of us :). 
 
We've lived in California all of our lives and haven't once visited or been to Half Moon Bay, so Brandon took the reigns and sought out a super cute and quaint hotel and booked the trip.  It was beautiful and oh so relaxing. 
 
The hotel we stayed at was called The Beach House and we would totally recommend it in a heartbeat!  It was such a nice treat to be overlooking the harbor and it felt like a cozy little beach house.  There was a walkway that went for miles on either side of the hotel so we took advantage of taking a long walk along the beautiful coastline.
 

 
It was a bit on the windy side (ok, I mean very windy), but it was gorgeous out!
 


We got there later in the day so we decided to have a bit of a progressive dinner and dessert.  We walked to a restaurant on one end of the harbor and then walked back to another restaurant to pick up some dessert.  At least we walked off some of the calories :).  All along the way we had some great uninterrupted conversations about so many things in our lives. 
 
 
The next day we had some time after we checked out so we decided to talk a scenic walk along the other side of the main city.  We stumbled upon a path that lead to Manhattan Beach with cliffs, caves, and tide pools.
 
 





It was low tide so we got to see what was hidden only hours before.
 




The views were pretty hard to beat.
 

 
 
It was such a wonderful day and long overdue.  Thank you Brandon for making this trip such a priority!
