Post Ranch Inn

After leaving the seals, we made our way through the winding mountain road to this awesome hotel on a cliff. It's quite spread out and you have to do a fair amount of walking ( though they say they'll pick you up and drive you from place to place ) we are staying in the Pick Cottage ( named for a famous homesteader). I had a great massage in our room with the fireplace going and a view from the cliff through giant trees to the ocean. There is a great Bose sound system with all kinds of music but no TV. This is a getaway from everything kind of place! They have a gourmet restaurant and though we aren't typically gourmet fans, dinner was quite good. There are great hiking trails all around. Tomorrow is our Carmel, Pebble Beach, - the famous 17 mile drive -- adventure. Stay tuned.
