Carmina's Memorial Weekend Year 2017 at Mendocino and Fort Bragg, California



Carmina was in town visiting her family and friends in the United States. Every year, she enjoyed exploring new places or spots her family and friends had shared on social media.

She had a best friend from high school with whom she kept in touch despite living in the Philippines for many years.

Tips:

When I visited Mendocino and Fort Bragg in May, it was still cold, so my friend advised me to bring a thick jacket, sweater, or sweatshirt to layer with other clothes.

Wearing sneakers is ideal for outings that involve nature.

Don’t forget to bring a camera and a selfie stick if you like taking photos with your mobile phone.

A short getaway is a great way to catch up with friends, splitting all expenses equally.

The drive to Mendocino, California, took about three hours.

Carmina’s best friend booked a stay at the Glass Beach Inn on May 28, 2017, located at 726 N Main Street, Fort Bragg, California, United States.

We shared a room at the Dana Campbell, pretending we were managing our own boat.


Breakfast is provided each morning as a set meal for all guests staying at the Glass Beach Inn.


Staying at a B&B (Bed & Breakfast) lets you enjoy the warmth of someone else's home, greeted with a smile as you arrive. It feels cozy and welcoming, with hosts often offering suggestions for activities and ways to explore nature.

For a visit to Glass Beach in Fort Bragg, Mendocino, the best option is to drive and park at the designated lot. You won't miss it—just look for the sparkling pebbles covering the ground.


You might come across seamen returning from offshore fishing trips, walking around with their fishing poles and interesting catches. You'll also see plenty of families and children enjoying their time, playing together. Sometimes, you might even spot someone fishing with their dog, much like the scene in the background of my photo.



Places to eat if you're craving for pizza is at Round Table.


As you drive around, you'll come across a small town with charming shops, a church, and pleasant spots to stroll through the neighborhood.




First, you can admire the beauty of Mendocino through the photos Carmina captured using her selfie monopod.
