Travel: Hearst Castle

Itinerary:
  • Day 1: M, A, B and I drove up to Hearst, stopping by San Luis Obispo for a Cajun lunch at Bon Temps Creole Cafe (it's actually in a Ramada Inn. lol). As we were driving up to the castle, we saw the zebras on the estate grounds (see below). After doing a sundown tour (tour 1) of the castle, we stayed overnight in Cambria.
  • Day 2: We stopped to see an elephant seal colony at Piedras Blancas. We had coffee in Avila and strolled by the beach (it was cold!). Finally, before heading back, we had lunch and pastries in Solvang.
