After Mary literally dragged me back into the car in Yosemite because I was sure there were still more photos to be taken, we travelled west to connect with the Pacific Coast. The change in landscape, temp, and scenery was dramatic.

Part II: The Drive Along the Pacific Coast
After Mary literally dragged me back into the car in Yosemite because I was sure there were still more photos to be taken, we travelled west to connect with the Pacific Coast. The change in landscape, temp, and scenery was dramatic.
Half Moon Bay
Just ten miles away the sun was shining and it was a blue sky surrounding this small town south of San Franscisco. Half Moon Bay was my first introduction to the northern California coast and it sure was different than anything I've seen on eastern shores like the Outer Banks.
This is an upscale golf club setting. It actually had the one thing that made it feel like a stroll in Scotland--bagpipes playing in the distance.

Monterey Aquarium
One of the most beautiful aquariums in the world (based on my limited visitations to aquariums). This building used to be a old cannery but it was converted into this state-of-the-art attraction.
Hogs Breath Inn--Eastwood Theme
Once owned by Clint Eastwood, the Hog's Breath Inn is tucked away in Carmel, California. The food and service was alright. Atmosphere gets more points. Check out the tables in the outdoor eating area.
Lost Luggage?
If you've ever lost luggage at the Sacramento Airport you might want to check out this cool sculpture there.
