Winter in Canada is a sneaky thing. Just when you think it’s gone for good, and days upon days of mild, spring-like weather have occurred, a massive overnight snowstorm will hit. Yesterday, when I went to bed, the grass was showing in our lawn, and a day’s worth of rain had washed the last of the muddy-looking snow away. This morning, it was like waking up to a silent winter wonderland. Yes, it’s much prettier than the muddy snow-leftovers, but it just means that winter is still in full-swing. Ugh. Enough complaining though…
For some reason, I keep thinking back to the afternoon we spent in Sausalito, during our California trip in December. Sausalito is a little sea-side town across the bay from San Francisco. We stopped in on our way home from Napa, and just loved everything about it! From the cute little bakeries and shops, to the coastal homes flanking the hillside, we fell in love with Sausalito. We enjoyed a day spent browsing quirky t-shirt stores, sipping mochaccinos, and falling prey to one of the many ice-cream stores calling our name. Something about the blue and white, mixed with worn cedar shingles, makes my heart melt. I think I’m meant to live by the water at some point in the future…

isn't Sausalito so gorgeous? definitely a money town, but it has so much charm! everytime i'm there i see lots of cyclists, reminding me of the active lifestyle people have in the Bay area! if you go back, go to Fred's! it's this really good breakfast place, and they have deep-fried french toast!
Sausalito is a DREAM! The next time I visit my family in California, I insist on taking my husband there, I'm always yapping about it and we haven't yet had the chance to go. GORGEOUS pictures!!
