It's a little nerve-wracking. I do as well! It's so strange driving towards them after you've been in the flat plains and seeing them just rise out of the earth. Ugh I'm with on humidity! Once I went to New Orleans... NEVER again! It felt like I was drinking water whenever I breathed. Haha I can see how you wouldn't like Hwy 1! It's crazy looking out one window and seeing the land just drop off into the ocean! And thinking that if you don't have a good grip on the wheel, you could pitch right off the edge. But it's totally worth it!Laura @BlueEyeBookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12983345219563729728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2913730726494465142.post-64544118879163296472016-07-26T22:24:12.183-07:002016-07-26T22:24:12.183-07:00I did!

It must have been gorgeous.<br /><br />It seems like the perfect place to go and just relax. I wish I had something like it where I live!<br /><br />It is! It was really cool how, throughout our entire tour of California, we saw water bowls everywhere for dogs.<br /><br />No we didn't! I read about it but there just wasn't enough time in LA! It's such a big city and there's so much to see.Laura @BlueEyeBookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12983345219563729728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2913730726494465142.post-21209200831745302372016-07-24T14:57:16.452-07:002016-07-24T14:57:16.452-07:00That's quite the trip!

I'm glad you got to experience both snow and sand on the same vacation. ;) I think that's the charm of visiting the mountains, though- even if it's warm, you can usually find a snow pile the sun forgot to melt at some point.<br />~Litha NelleLitha Nellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06350209887646891024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2913730726494465142.post-77621625409322302772016-07-23T17:40:58.553-07:002016-07-23T17:40:58.553-07:00I love that you stopped throughout California to t...I love that you stopped throughout California to take in the sights! I think I'm used to it, but when you really take a moment to think about it, it's sort of mind boggling how huge California is.

My parents and I once drove from San Francisco down to Thousand Oaks by way of Hwy 1. I was so sick. It was awful.

But, I do love the mountains. I think they're just so majestic and beautiful. I love being in a state surrounded by them. And, I can understand not liking the dry air, lol. But, I have to admit that I HATE humidity. I guess we like what we're used to.Jenni Elysehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08403700912436098391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2913730726494465142.post-17952024145001834552016-07-23T13:01:06.035-07:002016-07-23T13:01:06.035-07:00Looks and sounds like you had an amazing vacation!...Looks and sounds like you had an amazing vacation!

I've also been to the Grand Canyon as well and had fun taking a helicopter ride over the Grand Canyon.<br /><br />I grew up in San Diego and love Balboa Park. I live near the SF Bay area now and miss SoCal pretty badly. I'd move back to Santa Barbara in a heartbeat (I lived there for 16 years before moving to Northern California).<br /><br />The drive up Highway 1 is awesome and I find Carmel to be charming!! It's so walkable and dog friendly. I'd love to live there or move back to Santa Barbara, CA to live.<br /><br />The Getty Center is nice to visit in LA. Did you make it to the Getty Villa in Malibu?? I liked the Getty Villa better than the Getty Center. I'm with you in that I wouldn't want to live in LA the traffic is horrific among other things.Captivated Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15789205839634527219noreply@blogger.com
