Big Sur

Today the group wanted to go to Carmel for shopping and dinner.

Downtown Carmel

Carmel


Carmel is a small town with lots of nice stores but nothing that really interested Nancy and I so we headed down the coast for Big Sur.



Hwy 1 between Carmel and Big Sur has to be one of the most scenic drives anywhere.




It was very windy and the surf was running 10-15 ft.  When we stopped to take a picture at one overlook the wind was blowing so hard I had to use all my strength to close the truck door.



Point Sur Lighthouse
 Unfortunately, the Point Sur Lighthouse is not open for tours on Monday so we could not get very close to it.

Point Sur rock
 On the way back to Watsonville we stopped at Moss Landing again to view the wildlife.

Lots of birds


The End
