Trip report, continued Cinnamon...

Post by Kentuckygirl »

Monday, June 9th
(I've got to get this TR done)
I woke to another beautiful sunrise. I feel like it gets better each day!! I mixed up mimosas and made sandwiches to take to the beach, then a few of us girls hiked down the hill to Cinnamon. The hike down isn't bad at all, but I'm not sure I would want to hike back up, especially after a few drinks.
Cinnamon was beautiful and there was no one else there but a lone swimmer. He kept swimming and swimming ... we weren't sure if he was swimming to his boat or what. He looked like he knew what he was doing... I sure hope so.

We enjoyed the beach a while and had our mimosas before the others arrived. We planned on moving to another beach in the afternoon, but the winds never picked up, Cinnamon stayed calm and beautiful, so we stayed all day.

Back to our villa for happy hour and dinner. I brought steaks and chicken from home to grill, so we grilled and ate at the villa.

Sunset that night

We had all 16 of us there that evening. It was the last night for some of the group and after lots of talking, singing, and dancing ended up being a very late night!

Wow, that is a killer view! I know what you mean about getting the TR done. I wanted to finish mine over the weekend, but it looks like it's gonna be another day or two. I've been enjoying your report. Thanks for posting it!

Yes, the view was awesome!!! The pictures don't even do it justice. I loved staying there.
decosuz, I've enjoyed your reports too! I still need to finish mine up, one more full day, travel day, and a little summary. (It was definitely different going with a big group...fun, but different.) I won't be getting to it tonight. We are getting ready to go to dinner ... hopefully I can finish it up tomorrow.

Wow what a great pictoral essay of your fabulous trip!! I find myself looking several times a day for a new excerpt...I hope it is not over.
As you know I am a huge fan of La Jolla Caribe and the Catherinberg area, I am glad you seem to have had a similar experience! :D I always enjoy the debates abour AC or not and I have argued from my La Jolla Caribe experiences. Didn't you find the openness nice and on the few times the breeze slowed down the fans worked well? Those who have not experienced the N Shore villas due to a concern over AC have missed out!

Sunrises and sunsets looked gorgeous.
Keep up the reporting!!
