It's a great experience to stay for a night on the Pacific coast at Mike&Wendy's. Although we booked the cottage in the hurry and arrived quite late in the night, we were awaited and welcomed with a great smile and friendly attitude.
The beach is really a 2 minutes walk from the house and CJ's (a few blocks away) offers great breakfast and french toast (thanks Mike for the advice). The next morning Wendy helped us to define the next stops of our road trip and to choose the best route and things to see.
