San Fran to Cambria, Ca 13 months ago

This is an awesome drive! I had to make it in 2 parts, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. The best section for me was from Monterey to Cambria. I plan to do the entire PCH from Seattle to San Diego next spring.

A beautiful and fun drive! Don’t be in a rush, it is better to be able to pull off and check things out and take pics along the way!

PCH 22 months ago

I didn’t do it all, but I did Santa Monica to San Francisco, stopping at Santa Barbara and Monterey Bay on the way.

It is sooooo beautiful and well worth doing. A highlight was driving along the Big Sur at dusk. Amazing.

Happening! 23 months ago

Well, this is happening in about 2 wks time. Well, part of it anyway. I’ve hired a super-duper sports car and I’m taking one full day and two half-days to drive from LA to San Francisco stopping off at Santa Barbara and Monterey on the way. I’m sooooooooo looking forward to it! I’m already putting some playlists together for my ipod to play in the car during the journey!



I did this many years ago 2 years ago

with the exhusband. We drove down to California from Washington to go to Disneyland. It was one of the most breathtaking stretches of highway I have ever seen.



Help 2 years ago

My wife and I recently lost our daughter and we are contemplating taking a quick PCH trip from S.D. or L.A. going north. We want to leave this Sunday (September 16th) and return Wednesday. Any suggestions? I’m wondering if I can make it up to S.F. or not in that amount of time.
