California love winds down....

Wow... Last few days have been busy and amazing.   After leaving Thousand Oaks we hit the highway to Morro Bay where we caught Pacific Highway one and made our way north to Monterey.   That stretch is just breathtaking.. Words cannot describe... Mother nature is just amazing.   We made lots of stops for pictures of the coast,  more mountains,  Mcway waterfalls... (which had pretty scenery but not really an impressive fall), Bixby bridge and others. The big change we noticed heading up was the temp drop.   Been wearing Capri and long  sleeves more than shorts.

We were on Monterey for two nights and saw more scenery around Pebble beach(Lone cyprus) and Carmel by the Sea as well as around the Cannery in Monterey itself.   We also visited a Raceway LaGun Seca and the Monterey aquarium  which were both neat.

Last stretch up PCH to San Francisco  was cool.. Bit we bundled up and left the top down... So of course.   Some beautiful views again but more veggie and fruit farms along the way... And less dead Hills.

Last days were in San Francisco and area.   Saw sights like Muir woods (red wood trees), Golden Gate Bridge,  Lombard St crooked Hill,  road a cable car,   pier 39, etc

In the airport now waiting for our flight home.   Going to be tired and jet lagged with time change and late flight.   Our trip was amazing and I am grateful we were able to make  vacation out of it,  see and experience some amazing things and have some quality time together.

Coming home also means back to reality.   The past few days I have been a bit emotional.   I am sad our trip is over but nervous about where things will go from here.   I have a good feeling.... We feel all of your love,  support and crossed fingers.    Going to stop now as I am getting tired.   Hope I was making sense and autocorrect didn't screw anything up...   Next post will be back on Canadian  soil.

Fingers crossed!!! Sorry for the two pics.. Can't get rid of one
