After spending our first few days in LA running around Disneyland and shopping for hours on end in Hollywood and Beverly Hills, we welcomed a relaxing day exploring Santa Monica. We had assumed that the area just consisted of a beach and a pier with some rides, however we were pleasantly surprised when we discovered awesome shopping and food. We would recommend a visit to the 3rd Street Promenade, which is the main shopping area, where we discovered Zara, Urban Outfitters, a Barney's Co-Op, Bloomingdales, etc. We couldn't go past The Ivy at the Shore, which is the more low key, beachside version of The Ivy on Robertson. We had already had lunch so we just shared dessert before heading back to our hotel, which was amazing nonetheless.
P.S. Please excuse our lack of posts, we've both been attempting to settle back into reality after coming home from our overseas adventures. Unfortunately we don't have any solid plans for travelling in the near future, but we're sure that won't last long...
