Our Newest Baby Birds

Our second clutch of eggs has hatched. The picture to the right is the dad. The four little babies look so funny. Their eyes aren't open yet and the have such a small amount of feathers. The one in the picture below looks like he has a mohawk.

Two Blocks from the Inn

It was so beautiful today so I decided to take you all on a walk to the beach. This picture was taken standing one block from the Inn. The following picture is just turning and pointing the camera towards the ocean. How lucky we are to live so close to such a beautiful beach. Not usually very crowded. Always clean. Nice to take a moment to appreciate it.

Another sign of Spring

The word must be out that our gazebo area is a good place to raise baby birds. These are not
as small as the hummingbirds and I dont' know what kind of bird the mom is. A very plain brown bird. She built the nest on top of our outdoor heater. We will be waiting to see the little ones hatch.

Flowers in Bloom..

The Flower Fields in Carlsbad may be done blooming, but everywhere else is a color explosion! The smell of Jasmine fills the air to create a pleasure for the nose and the eyes. Come to Carlsbad and enjoy the best that spring has to offer.

Pelican Cove Inn Supports the Kiwanis Club

The Pelican Cove Inn enjoyed hosting Kevin Dobson, of "Knot's Landing" and Kim and Chip McAllister from "The Amazing Race", as they donated their time to participate in the Oceanside Pacific Kiwanis Club Celebrity Gold Tournament on May 11th. The event was held at the Camp Pendleton Marine Memorial Golf Course and to see the various charities that benefit from the tournament, to to the Kiwanis Club's web site, http://www.oceansidepacific.org/ . We are glad we could donate the rooms and really appreciate that fact that the participating celebrities take the time out of their schedules to help raise money for such a worthy cause.

Sixteen Years and Counting.....

But, one thing remains the same; Carlsbad by the Sea is an incredible vacation destination that offers unique shopping, dining and glorious beaches all within walking distance of this very special bed and breakfast.
