Yesterday was spent with the ocean; driving along it, walking beside it, smelling the salt in the air – feeling the wind in our faces.
Most of the day was spent near Big Sur, south of San Fransisco. We tried, earlier in the week, to visit the Pacific when we were north of the city…
…but fog made the driving hazardous and we gave up after a brief touch.
Yesterday, our last full day in California we wanted to watch the sunset over the Pacific.
So we picked up burgers and ate them on the beach while we waited. It was perfect way to end a lovely vacation.
Today we’re flying home, going back to our real lives, our Katie-girl, my job. But not before I get to meet Ellen in person! She’s coming with her two dogs and we’re going to go for a short walk! I can’t wait!
I have so many other fun and interesting things to share with all of you, more than I can ever get into this blog, but for now please enjoy the sunset over the Pacific. Complements of me.

Looks like it was a wonderful trip! I haven’t been to California in a very long time – I’ve made 2 trips there in my lifetime; a vacation to San Diego when I was in high school and a whirlwind weekend for my sister-in-law’s wedding 24 years ago. It has been too long.

What a wonderful and beautiful vacation you had!
California is the only US state that I have visited and I love the place, I can still recall we landed in LA, drove southward to Palm Springs and from there, we visited from the south to the north until we reached SF, then we came back and had a good look in LA . Your beautiful pictures led me down to my memory lane too.
