Cambria is a little town on the Central California Coast. Its sleepy and very likeable, with a stunning backdrop of the Pacific Ocean. There are lots of
Antique stores and cool little mom and pop diners. Its a great escape and only about 2 hours from Los Angeles.
My favorite place is the Breakfast nook on the main street. Giant pancakes and
yummy sausages on a foggy cool Sunday morning. Heaven
