(We think we were on the road by nine) Busy, busy day so far. Quick outline over lunch: -Page Mill Road�super twisty, amazing views, wonderful clean air, huge trees -La Honda to San Gregorio: on U.S. Highway 1�beaches, sealing head, rocky lumps, super neat cave, steep cliffs, unheeded warnings, windy, windy, windy, overcast and beautiful. -Lunch: Whale City Bakery Bar & Grill (cheese sandwich and chocolate shake) We had originally intended to head to Monterey to do some sight seeing there but ened up coming back to San Jose from Santa Cruz because we were a little tired, we will take a nap before going out to dinner tonight. Page Run Road was a super scenic route to the coast twisting through the mountains. The height of the trees is unreal, nothing to compare to on the east coast. At the first stop on the Pacific Ocean there was this cave worn away into the sandstone. There must have been a fairly recent fir with the heavy smell of burning wood lingering in the air as we approached the opening. Many people had permanently (or at least until that section erodes or collapses) left expression of love (and other expected nonsense) engraved crudely into the walls. At a later stop we encountered an aloof sea lion popping his head out the whipped up surf, carefully watching us from a safe distance. Subsequent stops for sightseeing progressively got shorter due to chilling breezes coming off of the frigid waters (dipped my fingertips and let the water trickle on my palm above the sand, brrr!). Now we have two oceans under our belts. Calla lilies grew by the road side as if they were weeds. There were fields of artichokes everywhere as well as unidentifiable, undoubtedly interesting produce crops. Drove all about Santa Cruz aimlessly not knowing what we really had there other than finding wind surfing gear shops. I took this opportunity to examine the insides of my eyelids making sure Mark would alert me to any new developments in astounding scenery. When we returned to Martin's we relaxed and vegetated in front of the television and played a few video games (showing off my extreme ineptitude for video game controls). We then dolled ourselves up for an Indian dinner at Amber, lots of yummy food had by all. I went with a sampler special getting a large variety of appetizers through desserts, having a small portion of five entrees, mmmm� eating well on this trip.
