On Saturday morning we left Little Saigon (that's where we reside) and all the way up California to Big Sur. That's almost to San Francisco. We drove along the most beautiful beaches, through rolling green hills, along sheer cliffs dropping into the ocean, and through Redwood forests. It was awesome. We saw elephant seal resting on the sand, dolphins jumping in the ocean, pods of whales blowing water in the air, and a family of deer running in the woods. Saturday night we stayed at a lodge in the middle of a forest at the top of a cliff over the ocean. They had no TV's, no phones, and not even a gas station. It was really cool. On Sunday morning we hiked down to a waterfall, drove to a paradise-like beach where the mountain stream hits the ocean, and drove all the way home.
The pictures that we took just didn't do it justice.
This is what most of the ride looked like
Notice the baby waterfall dropping on the sand
This was our little friend outside of our lodge room
Bixby Bridge. It was large.
The best hot chocolate I ever had in my life.

Tanya! This is awesome! I am so glad that you got to get away for a weekend. How was it leaving the little girl for so long? I'm so happy for you! I really miss riding the bike and that looks like a gorgeous ride. Also, I love the picture of you and Tasha. That is too precious. I can't wait to see you, Aaron, and Kali next month! WOOHOO!
I am always on the look out for a great road trip. that looks like the ideal vacation. A lodge that's completely disconnected from the world, a fun drive down a gorgeous coastline. Your pictures are AWE-mazing. good post. :)
