Hitting the hot spots!

Sunday morning and an ideal day to visit the local sights. First, we drove over to Carmel, the up-market town by the ocean with its close Clint Eastwood connections.

We managed to park on Ocean Avenue and took a hike on the beach, where the waves were rolling in. Back on Ocean Avenue we called in the local coffee shop and met another nice couple from the UK, who were also touring. Anyway, the time passed and it was soon time to take off to the Carmel Gate entrance to the Seventeen-Mile Drive. Its a fabulous journey past Pebble Beach Golf Course, a collection of mega houses and splendid ocean views.

We spent some time at the Ocean stop-offs and had a picnic whilst we soaked in the sun and the views. To finish off the day's touring, we drove on to Point Lobos State Reserve and walked the path alongside its rugged ocean scenery.

Pretty soon, we'd had enough heat and so retreated back to base, to cool off.and Skype Jenny in the UK! During today's tour, I heard the following upbeat track 'Reveillie Rock' by Johnny and the Hurricanes, which I haven't borrowed, previously:
