Highway One


We got up and had a continental breakfast and then drove from Yountville back to San Francisco, crossing the Golden Gate Bridge. We then took the scenic route through Presidio to the ocean and then joined Highway 1.

We then drove to Santa Cruz and took a stroll along the boardwalk. As we left the car park, there was a big bump on the back of the car. We pulled up and spoke to the guy behind who had hit us. Luckily there was no damage, but his girlfriend who was driving was pretty upset.

From there we drove to Carmel and booked into a motel and then walked into the town. We found a place to have lunch (huge sandwiches!) and did some shopping.

Carmel is a very quaint little town which reminds me a lot of the town in the Truman Show.

We popped back to the motel and phoned Robins in Cambria to book a table for dinner tomorrow night.

Shortly after we took a walk down to the beach to watch the sunset. There were loads of people there and the sunset was very pretty. From there we wandered back into the town and went to an Italian restaurant. We only had a starter and a salad each as we were both still full from lunch.

After that, we went back to the motel.
