Easter Brunch at the Beach in Carlsbad

Easter Brunch at the Beach

 

Carlsbad bluffs above the beach

 

It was another spectacular day in Carlsbad, and rather than fight the crowds at the local restaurants, and not wanting to get all dressed up in Easter finery, we opted for a casual brunch on the bluff overlooking the Carlsbad coastline.

The beaches were crowded but we lucked out with a parking spot. And we enjoyed watching the pelicans flying overhead, enjoying the coastal breezes.

HAPPY EASTER!!

It's pretty hard to not relax at the beach Paul S. Henderson, CRS, REALTOR®,  I always do!

We, unfortunately, did not spend time with family in LA, but had some wonderful photos Bob Crane Hope you had a very Happy Easter and time with family!

Beautiful alternative to spending a peaceful Easter Sunday! I loved the purple flowers, the view of the beach through the eye of your camera and we got to see a birds eye view too!

Your post was simply wonderful!!!

Good morning Jeff. It was raining to beat the band Sunday morning.  The clouds and rain cleared just enough for us to have our Easter egg hunt.  It turned out to be a wonderful day

Hi Jeff -- finding a parking place near the beach on a holiday is reason alone to celebrate but that seems to have been just the beginning.  Great photos.

Love watching the pelicans drift on the breezes, and then swooping down over the waves. Great cliff top views, a relaxing weekend from the photos.

Hi Amanda S. Davidson  - it was a great location and a wonderful Easter brunch!

Thanks Sheila Anderson  - I lucked out with my camera getting the pelicans - I had to try a bunch of time, and in the bright sun I couldn't see very well

They are fun to watch flying above, or right along the water. There's a big lagoon there, too and they like to hang out there by the aquafarm Nick & Trudy Vandekar 

It was only a couple of hours but that was good enough Beth Atalay
