Road trip day one (570 kms)

We hit highway 101 today all along the Pacific coastline of California on up to our final destination of Salinas and the Monterey Coast. It was such a fantastic drive and the landscape changed dramatically at times but it was a long way so we are both tired and ready to drop.

Along the way we saw:
• Heaps of Harley Davidsons
• Several very flash houses in Malibu
• An awful lot of flags in memory of September 11
• Several Winnebagos
• Some fog
• Lots of blue sky
• A weird car with six wheels
• Lots of amazing hills
• A few oil drills
• A street called Santa Claus
It was a great drive with the highlight of ending in a gorgeous seaside town called Carmel which every shop and restaurant had a different European inspired look and lots of amazing trees and flowers.
