This picture is just a preview of what we saw on this day! It's hard to choose pictures, there were such great ones!Laura had some work to catch up on, so mom and I enjoyed a nice leisure breakfast, and a refreshing morning walk around the neighborhood. Afterwards, we all showered and got ready for our trip to Big Sur! We headed out south, driving down Highway 1 along the coast of CA. Absolutely beautiful! I was amazed at the big cliffs and vegetation that overlooked the 
ocean. Laura was great about stopping along the way so we could snap some pictures. I would jump right out of the car and head out as far as I could for a closer look; while mom stayed closer to the car knees shaking! She even sounded like MeMe a few times! She did real well though, and we even got her in some of the pictures!!! We stopped at a great place for lunch where we could sit outside and enjoy the views. The restaurant set above a store, so afterwards we did some great looking! We got back in the car and headed 
back up Highway 1 towards Carmel. We parked and walked down to the beach. If you looked to the left, you could see Pebble Beach Golf Course, which of course excited dad when he heard! The beach was beautiful, but a bit chilly. I don't know how people where out in bathing
suits in the water! Laura had visitor passes, so our next stop was Monterey Bay Aquarium. I thought it was neat that the water in all the tanks are fed directly from the ocean. After a quick tour through the place, we headed to the Ghiradelli shop for an ice cream sundae for three! Laura took us home the long way so we could see more of the coast. We drove though Santa Cruz and eventually made our way home.

I have included a few more pictures from the day. In one you can see what we considered the "True Happy Cows from California". 
What cow wouldn't be happy living with that view?! You can also see Bixby Bridge in one picture which Grant says is the area used in many car commercials. Enjoy the views of the pictures. Next 
stop....San Fransico!
