Cambria is known (or sold) as the "village of the artists".
This is still fully to be demonstrated, because it appears me as not artistic at all.
The point is actually, that I LIKED IT A LOT.
Just outside the Highway 101, heading north and before getting the route towards the coast and the Pacific Coast Highway, there is a tiny (and THIS is a surprise) road that brings to this lovely, small, peaceful village.
Not to sleep in, but deserving a visit. This is Cambria Leave a Comment

The Native American Museum is very interesting at the entrance to this park with artifacts in excelllent condition. I didn't go into the park but spent the time it took my friends to take the gondolla ride, visiting the museum. It was a free tour for me but I think to view the trees is $11. Leave a Comment

This coastal highway winds along the scenic miles of California's coast. Both beaches and the rugged coastline can be seen. This is definitely the long way, but you can always pick a few stretches to hit the road. Some good choices include stretches near Monterey Bay, Santa Cruz, Half Moon Bay, Muir Beach in Marin, Jenner in Sonoma County, and Mendocino. Enjoy the drive.

This lighthouse was off the road a bit and was located just before Half Moon Bay in San Mateo County. Leave a Comment

The Native American Museum is free and well worth a look see. The artifacts are in extremely good condition and good lighting throughout the area. Jewelry and wood carvings are also for sale. Leave a Comment

the central coastal area of califronia is sparsely populated and contains rolling hills, oak trees, and verdant farms. around here is the worlds biggest grower (or maybe usa's biggest grower...) of artichokes and garlic. Leave a Comment

Santa Barbara is a jewel. The city is located about one hour north of Los Angeles. It has a beautiful beach and a historic Spanish downtown. In the backcountry there are green hills and mountains. The sea breeze, the California sun and the beaches are reason enough for a long visit. Once you are there, stroll through downtown and climb up the tower of the old courthouse, which you can see on the photo to the left. The picture below the tower is the view over the city from the observation deck on top of the tower. Leave a Comment

BIG SUR.
As you drive along Pacific Highway 1 (from LA to SanFran), DON'T FORGET to drop by Big Sur... (See pic below). Such FANTASTIC coastal scenery is too breathtaking for anyone to miss!!!!

I traveled from Oregon down highway 101 through the redwood forests and then over to highway 1 which goes right along the coast. If you have the time and some wheels, I highly recommend it. Leave a Comment
