We made it to Cambria from Morro Bay/Cayucos in record time! It was much too early to check in so we headed to the "East Village" where we had enjoyed the shopping on our previous visits.
Most of the shops were obviously dog friendly.
And if I wasn't sure, I'd let the Missus enter and wait with JJ outside. And more often then naught, I'd be waved on in.
The Missus really enjoys shopping and browsing in Cambria.
I think that Cinnabar is one of our favorite shopping stops here.
Soon enough, it was time for an early lunch. After checking out a couple of places, we thought that the Redwood Cafe, located in the lot where we had parked our car seemed to have a nice outdoor dining area.
We waked over and were told to go ahead and pick a table; which we did.
The service was very…shall we say "relaxed" and things happened at a slower pace; not a bad things since we were on holiday and didn't know when our room would be ready.
The Missus got the special of the day; Chilaquiles. The eggs were nice and runny. The beans were very…ummmm…"gringo" and pasty.
The chips were nicely drenched in a red sauce; which was super sour and puckery.
I got a bowl of the Cilantro Chicken Soup.
Lots of tomato and celery. Also super sour! We ended up asking for some hot sauce and once we added some Tapatio to our dishes, things evened out a bit. I could then actually taste some chicken flavor.
Well, it was a nice day, the weather so pleasant and JJ enjoyed hanging out in the shade.

In fact, JJ kinda enjoyed the "hocus pocus" of Cambria!
And just as we were paying for our meal, I got a text that our room was ready! Nice! We'd be able to check in a couple of hours early and squeeze in a nap!
