Coronado was holding an old car show today; one of our favorite things! And of course on the one day that we go down there. So fun. After the show we went walking around the island and came across this little 1960's style coffee shop and wanted to go in so badly! But it was so crowded had such a long wait that we decided just to keep walking.. but as soon as we walked around the corner...
There was a barista window! So. cute! So we ordered the world's most delicious iced chai lates and sipped on them as we walked around town and looked in little vintage shops.
We found ourselves in this little cubbyhole alleyway of cute shops and decided just for the heck of it to go in one of the most touristy of them.. and the second we walked in and looked at the guy working, we froze. It was Pen Badgley's twin. No joke, it was the weirdest thing ever... so I gave him Leesha's number :) Haha so ridiculous.
And speaking of famous people, we decided to take a visit to the Hotel del Coronado where Marilyn Monroe stayed and filmed. We walked around the entire hotel, on every floor and balcony... and let me tell you, it was a bit insane. The staircases are all slanted and crazy and every step you take, the floor creeks! But I have to admit, the ballroom would definitely be an amazing place for a highschool to hold their prom, or for a bride and groom to have their wedding reception. Amazing! The gift shop- yes, the hotel had a gift shop- was filled with postcards, videos, pictures, purses, etc of Marilyn.. so cute.
After a long day of crazy driving and walking forever, we were treated to a delishhh tempoura plate at Teri Cafe :) Such a fun day! Love you Leesh!
Xoxo,
Hill
