Avenida Vista Montana – the suite life of travel

I was so excited when I was offered a clinical trial position in Southern California. I had a couple of weeks to pack my belongings and make the cross country move. My brother had a few friends who said they would help me pack and then he would drive with me to San Clemente and stay for a few days enjoying the California coast.

After a couple of nights in hotels, we finally arrived and rested an additional night before moving into my second floor, one-bedroom apartment. With some help from my new colleagues, we finally completed the move and had some time to visit the beach before sunset. Fishermen cast their poles over the edge in hopes of catching their dinner. We opted to visit Fisherman’s Restaurant on the pier.

We found a parking spot in the lot surrounded by palm trees and I wanted to step onto the beach and was curious to see if the water was cold. We learned that the haze was a part of June Gloom which is what the locals call the month of June. The temperature is a consistent 70 degrees most of the days in San Clemente and all year around.

The sunset was an incredible golden and orange as it set out into the horizon. From that moment, I promised myself that I would make my way to the beach each night just to witness the beauty of the setting sun.

It was darker now as we drive through the center of town, back to Avenida Vista Montana. I could definitely become accustomed to the beauty of SoCal and will make the most of it as long as I am here.

Have you ever moved to a new state or country and felt like you had just moved to paradise? I would love to hear about your experience if you would kindly leave
