Highway 1

After leaving a fog covered, rainy San Francisco behind I took off down highway 1.  It took awhile to get away from the smog, but man was it worth the wait. It is indeed a beautiful drive.  I took my time driving down the curvy, bike heavy road and stopped often.  I think I stopped for 4 different hikes just in Big Sur.  Came across this idyllic cove and wished I could get down to the beach for a swim.  Until I remembered that the water is around 50 degrees.


Ricky and I camped at Limekiln state park. The campground sits along a creek in the forest, but there is also a beach along the ocean side of the property.  A nice mix, if you ask me.  I hiked out to the lime kiln remnants that gave the park its name early the next morning.  I love seeing evidence of nature retaking the world.


Seals!

I know they look dead, but I promise I saw almost all of them move.
