San Francisco - Day 2

We survived our night of camping! The kids & I ate a little breakfast in the land yacht while Mr broke camp down & re-loaded the car. Our first stop of the day was to Hearst Castle in Cambria. What an amazing estate. It's so HUGE that there are 4 different tours & each tour shows you something different. The smallest guest house on the estate is something like 2400 sq'. That's bigger than our house! Here are only a small fraction of the pictures I took there.
Afterward we drove a few miles to were the seals sunbath on the beach to visit them & have lunch.
From there we drove up the coast some more to Monterey.
In Monterey we visited the aquarium & had dinner with some friends stationed there.



After dinner we finished our drive to San Francisco. It's only about 1.5 hours from Monterey. We stayed at the Marine Memorial Hotel. Their rates for active duty military members, if you are a member of the hotel (which is free), are pretty good. Even includes a nice breakfast buffet. I <3 id="gwProxy" type="hidden">
