Big Sur

We had an amazing drive today along the hairpin highway 1. Remarkable views reminded us of the Azores and some white knuckle cliff overlooks above the clouds. Of special note was a stretch between Big Sur and Monterrey. We even saw a beach filled with Elephant Seals. They just appear to lay around and make snorting grunts while moving as little as possible. Also, in 35 mile stretch we counted over 50 other mustangs. Must be the official car of highway 1. Made it to Santa Cruz where the temp is back to 85 after our frigid 65 degree ride all day with the top down. Walked the Santa Cruz boardwalk and now we can actually relax for a bit before dinner.
