Day 019
We continued driving up the coast on the first section of our road trip. Needed a break and decided to follow some signs to the beach. It was well worth it. I got to drive ON the beach!!! That was pretty sweet. I’ve never done that before! The beach was sooo flat, sooo clean, so pretty.
We had a good time searching for shells and sand dollars for Dan’s collection. He hit the jackpot after a few attempts.
We also had lunch at a cute little place, saw a low flying helicopter, a guy riding his bike in the shallow waves (really) and a biplane giving rides and puffing smoke. So, you can imagine it was hard… again… to pick a photo.

This photo speaks for itself.
Bonus pic: We also saw the Madonna Inn, as it was visible from the highway and a ‘must see’ apparently. It’s NOT named after or affiliated with Madonna in any way actually, which is funny. It’s super, super, PINK. Weird, but neat. The inside is quite elaborate.

very cool looking, but weird inn.
