Check out the view from The Retreat in Laguna! KX 93.5 was broadcasting live while I got to tell Santa what I want for Christmas. Mare Culinary Lounge catered the event and The Organic Wine Cellar supplied the delish wine. I will be taking the Retreat guests on my walking tour once a week to show them our beautiful artist colony!

I am very sad to report the iconic, Cottage Restaurant, will be closing on December 26, 2012, after 48 years in business. On December 6th at 6:00pm, they will be serving free chili, cornbread and cider, as they celebrate their time they had here in Laguna Beach. We will all miss them!

As I was researching my next Laguna Beach Walks walking tour last night, I came across these groms skimming at Cress Street. Who cares about homework when there are waves? Stay tuned for a fun, second walking tour, coming soon!
Last week I was running in Heisler Park with my BFF, along the same path as my Laguna Beach Walks waking tour, and guess who I literally ran into? Monks from Tibet! They are here in Laguna Beach constructing a sand mandala at the Neighborhood Congregational Church for Tibet Cultural Week.
