FROM SANTA CRUZ TO CRUISING THE COAST

November 6th and 7th

Leaving Palo Alto we stopped in Santa Cruz to ride on California's oldest Roller Coaster! SOOOOOOO much fun. It's my (piver) type of ride....a good old wood coaster! We weren't that lucky though as the people before us for some reason got to go round 3 times! We only got to go once :( still super fun though!

After our short pause in Santa Cruz we kept on cruising south to Big Sur! Supposed to be one of the nicest highways in the world, but with all the fog we couldn't see much. However, for the first time in probably forever we arrived at the campsite before dark and were able to set up our tent in day light. That being said, we weren't as lucky as we had to pay for the site (35$).

We spent a quite evening in the country and away from all the hustle of the city. Waking up in the raining wasn't the best surprise though.
We quickly packed up, and headed down the coast a bit to see what Big Sur was all about....we, we can't really tell you what it's all about as we couldn't see much. Luna claims to have seen a dolphin....I saw a bunch of rocks poke through the break of the waves :~ We did see a nice mini water fall though, and some lovely coast.
