Victoria beach at Laguna

We are on spring break this week and we have had really nice weather so far, but it is expected to get cloudy and rainy for the rest of the week.  We took advantage of our good fortune and headed to the beach town of Laguna Beach...

If you are not from Southern California, it a small beach town between Los Angeles and San Diego, very expensive with million dollar homes in the hills or nesteled on the shore.  Cute, quaint houses on the shore...which I could not help but snap up a few pictures of and dream of owning a house there, {yes, DREAMING in capital letters}.

Love the fragrant lavender growing on this picket fence and the charcoal shingles house.  I'll take it one please...

See how healthy that lavender is..must love the sea air...

Cute cottages up on stilts to capture gorgeous ocean views...

Made me smile to see window boxes that has beautiful, colorful flowers in them. 

My friend calls this one "Snow White's Cottage"...I can see why..

I love this one...I loved that color of shingles with the crisp white and WOW look at that view!!

here is the slate rock-way with river rock leading to the front door....

this was guarding the pathway...do you know what that is? It is a Sticks of Fire succulent, if you touch it and get the sap on your hands and touch your eyes it will burn like HELL has no fury. 

Here is the pathway that leads next to that house...so beautiful, no?  Since I took a lot of pictures I'll do another post tomorrow of the beach, a cute little turret lighthouse lookout and the cute shops we browsed in after our day at the beach...so stay tuned.
