Hi everyone,
It’s been awhile! We have spent the last 2 weeks driving up through northern California, Oregon, and Washington, finally landing in Victoria, BC (back in Canada!), where we are now living in a condo downtown until mid-June.
Here is one set of a couple of sets of pics from our drive up the coast, which was stunning!
Okay, these first two are back in San Francisco (I know, that is soooo April!); this is Molly, the cat that came with the house we were staying in, curled up in Tony’s suitcase while he was packing; she apparently wanted to come with us.
And our last shot of San Francisco as we drove out of town!
The first major site in Northern California was the giant redwoods
Some of which you could drive thru (this was actually one of the smaller drive-thru trees)
This shot is from an area in Redwood National Park called Fern Canyon, there are walls of fern and a lovely stream to walk up (given waterproof hiking boots, and a change of socks in the car); they shot parts of Jurassic Park here
Also part of the coastal drive, lovely beaches full of drift wood; Carolyn felt at peace and liked to do her yoga there
Tony felt so at peace he wanted to live there
Another frequent site all along the pacific northwest coast in the US, drive thru espresso huts; here is one of our faves (not sure why....)
Here are a few shots of typical Northern California/Oregon coastline
More to come from our coastal tour in the next few days
Love to all!
C & T
