Bag Pipes at Sunset

  Now this is the way to end the day…a bag piper on the 1st tee of The Links at Spanish Bay (one of the golf courses in the Pebble Beach area).  He walked on just before sunset- in full costume- and played for about 15 minutes- very cool!

   While my husband golfed, I walked around Carmel- a perfect little town along the coast with a real sand beach and beautiful views to Pebble Beach.   The homes are modest in size, and an interesting mix of English story book cottages and upscale beach bungalows surrounded by mature trees.  The woods/beach setting reminds me of Kiawah, South Carolina- another favorite beach location.
