Coastal Cruise

On the way home from visiting family up in Vacaville, CA., I decided that a coastal cruise would be more fun then a long, hot, and boring drive through central California. San Francisco sounded like as good as spot as any to start exploring, so I headed there first.

Even though driving the Cabrillo Highway takes a lot longer then some of the other highways, it is well worth the time. I'll definitely be back soon and spend even more time exploring and photographing all along this most fabulous and scenic route.
