Did the drive on a beautiful sunny day. Stopped at Pebble Beach for an outdoor lunch. This a wonderful half day stop over on our Pacific Coast Hway drive from San Francisco to San Diego.

It is an amazing nature. A pleasure driving, stopping and walking and enjoying …just a heaven. Beautiful especially in April, all the flowers are in blossom. Sunset is beautiful. Only it would be great if the entrance payment would work for the whole day. We exit for lunch with my family and came back again, we paid again. ( a car entry costs $11.25)
