Welcome to OC presents guest blogger Craig Carbonniere, President of Orange County Coastal Concierge

It’s a beautiful summer day in July and you are visiting Orange County, what should you do? This is where Orange County Coastal Concierge comes in to give you and your family personalized recommendations on how to maximize your vacation’s potential.
 
You start out your warm summer day at Break of Dawn restaurant for breakfast and order the freshly baked Cinnamon Bun. Each gooey, soft, sweet bite of the Cinnamon Bun is a surreal experience!  Break of Dawn was founded by a remarkable chef who previously amazed Guests at Laguna Niguel’s own Ritz Carlton Hotel.

After your breakfast you spend the rest of the morning at “Surf City, USA”, Huntington Beach where you can watch the incredible surfers at the Pier. Now you are anxious to see if you would be any good at surfing so you enroll you and your family into Corky Carroll’s Surf School. You spend incredible family time playing in surf and your children obtain a memory that they will keep for the rest of their lives.

You have built up an appetite of course from your Surfing lesson and you want to pick up something quick for lunch. You shower off at one of the private showers at Bolsa Chica State Beach, and head up to the City of Orange for lunch. You stop at Mattern Sausage & Meats and eat a Reuben Sandwich that is piled high with their popular corned beef.

You and your full stomach are ready for your next adventure in the OC.  As I mentioned earlier, it is summer, and Orange County’s own “Boys of Summer” (Angels Baseball) season is in full stride. You purchase $9 outfield tickets and take the family out to the ball game.  The Angels sweep the Yankees and your appetite is back!

Just across the freeway east of Angels Stadium is Lazy Dog Café. The atmosphere of Lazy Dog Cafe is great for families who will truly feel comfortable in this restaurant. You will spend the next 45 minutes enjoying a blue cheese burger with bacon. Don’t forget to order the famous Cajun Fries!

As you make your way back down to the Laguna Beach hotel you stop at Joe’s Italian Ice, Garden Grove. As you enjoy your JoeLatti (layers of Italian ice and soft serve) you and the family reminisce on what an amazing day in which you just had.

Family Vacations can be such an important event in you and your family’s life.  We couldn’t agree more at Orange County Coastal Concierge!  We specialize in making our welcomed Orange County visitor’s vacations memorable.
