Carlsbad Beach Grill

Just enjoyed a lovely lunch (with lovely company...thanks Susan!!) at the Carlsbad Beach Grill. They have the BEST sweet potato fries I have ever had. The sandwich is a BLTA (Bacon, Lettuce, Tomato and Avocado) and it was delicious! The fried zucchini is served with a great apricot sauce that compliments the zucchini so well. It is walking distance from the Inn. Check out their website at www.carlsbadbeachgrill.com .

Laguna Room Update

We did a little update to the Laguna room. It still has the bright, sunny beach feel, but with some great black and white beach photos. It was fun to add a little "punch" to the room. Come and see the changes. www.pelican-cove.com for reservations.

Strawberry Season (First of Three!!)

Yea!! Strawberry season (the first of three) is under way here in Carlsbad. We are lucky to have delicious strawberries available fresh from the field from now until well into summer. You must come and enjoy the beautiful sweet berries grown here in our city of Carlsbad. When you stay at Pelican Cove Inn www.pelican-cove.com, we often serve Carlsbad grown strawberries with our breakfast. Yum!!!

Beautiful Double Rainbow!!

This is the beautiful sight we were met with on Sunday morning. We had hard rain during the night and woke up to this amazing rainbow. I have never seen a rainbow so vivid or so complete from end to end. Too bad I didn't have a wide angle lens to capture the whole thing in one shot. Within minutes, it was gone.

Wow! This is a quilt. There is a display going on at the Oceanside Museum of Art www.oma-online.org with incredible quilts. There is also a great photography exhibit there. This is located just up the coast from the Pelican Cove Inn www.pelican-cove.com . Come stay and enjoy the great exhibits.
