After Yosemite, we have returned to the coast and are making our way back to San Francisco. Our first stop – Santa Cruz, a typical seaside town, famous for its Boardwalk, which is actually a fun fair.

We then called at some of the beaches further north, of which these two were the best:-

Pigeon Point Lighthouse

San Gregorio Beach – I don’t know what these structures are all about, but they are different!
Today we have looked at a few more beaches, but nothing but sand, and it’s very windy. We have cleaned the van, ready to give it back tomorrow. We have three more nights in San Francisco, and we are going to Alcatraz on Friday, then on Saturday we start the long journey home.
the flowers in the grass remind me of Monet paintings. I don’t think they were painted in California though 🙂
Yes you’re right! The one on our bedroom wall springs to mind.
Looking forward to seeing you soon
