We left Monterey this morning to start the drive down Highway 1, driving along the area known as the Big Sur. There were some spectacular views and we stopped several times to take them in, including visiting Julia Pfeiffer-Burns park to see a beautiful natural waterfall (McWay Falls) that comes out of the cliff onto the beach. We some amazing groups of seals on some beaches too. We visited Hearst Castle in the afternoon, a fascinating place built by William R Hearst in the early part of the 20th Century. It has a bizarre mish-mash of European antiquities as part of its structure and I think is more stunning outside than inside!
We got to our Motel, the Cambria Shores Inn, soon after 6pm and wandered into Cambria itself for dinner a bit later.
