Nirzhar and I have always loved The Strands, even before it became a name for it’s residential architecture, it’s “Funicular“, or the beautiful park and view up top. The Dana Point ‘point’ rises out of the sea on one side, the Ritz Carlton gazing down on beach goers at the other, with a long stretch of soft gleaming sand in between. We spent many summers here when our boys were younger. At a time when they needed to hold our hands to enter the chilly water, and when sand crabs swimming around a sand pail could entertain for hours. It had been a while since we had been there, so I was excited to hear during our initial conversation with the Bond family that it was a favorite place to go as a family.
