BIG SUR VIEWS


Big Sur is a 90 mile California coastal #1 highway route north from
 Carmel by the Sea.

 The Bixby Bridge was one of the first constructed on the highway in 1935.


 We travelled south on the highway with the trailer, an interesting and scary adventure, on the way to Carmel.

A day trip out of Carmel without the trailer gave us more opportunity for sight seeing.


This coastline is breath taking.
The view out the kitchen window of the trailer during our lunch was special.



Wild flowers only added to the great scenery.

Maggie was a little attention stealer also.
Local Garden
Super size plants on the route.


Great snacks at the local restaurants.
The menu included a great ocean view.
 
The McWay Falls at the Julia Pfeiffer SP.
Thanks to Garmin we found one of the few road accesses to the shore.
What a great beach!!
Sunset was a perfect time to be on the beach.
