Central Coast Part II

Part I

Although there are many things to see and do in Monterey, due to time constraints, we chose to take the 17 Mile Scenic Drive. This road is located entirely within a wealthy residential community. The contrast between the beaches of Monterey and Highway 1 can be summarized as feminine and masculine, respectively. The beaches of Monterey are white and pretty.

The famous Lone Cypress is one of the stops along this drive.

Central Coast

My wife and I recently took a road trip to the Central Coast of California. I’ve lived in California my entire life but the beauty of the state still never ceases to amaze me. I couldn’t stop raving about the trip so Mrs. Bee asked me to write about it as a possible domestic honeymoon destination.

Starting from our home in Orange County, we drove past Santa Barbara and made Solvang our first stop. (approx 150 miles)

This quaint village, which was founded by Danish immigrants several decades ago, maintains the charm of a Scandinavian folk village. From the architecture to the food, one could easily forget that they are in California. Things to do include trying out Solvang’s famous pancakes, shopping, as well as taking a leisurely walk while enjoying the unique atmosphere and architecture. A few hours should be enough time to experience Solvang since it only takes about twenty minutes to walk from one end to the other.
