Big Sur, California , November 18, 2010

What a gorgeous drive down Highway 1 along the Pacific Ocean today! It was partly sunny on our drive to the coast, but again the fog and clouds rolled in for our drive to Big Sur--but it was still beautiful! We pulled over multiple times for 'Kodak' moments and enjoyed lunch  at a restaurant that sits high on a cliff  overlooking the coast----it has been there since 1949. It was so cool today they had a fire going in a big open pit in the middle of the dining room and we sat with our backs to the fire looking out at the awesome views!

At one over look I got out of the car and heard the barking of seals---it took us the field glasses to actually spot them so far down, but if  you look closely  you can see them in some of the photos ----they are tan colored and laying all over the tops of some rocks! We also 'followed' some large dolphins on their way south along the coast---these pictures are a little fuzzy since I had to zoom so much to get them!

Look closely for the seals

These cows have no idea  how lucky they are to be grazing by the ocean!!
