Day 020
Road Trip continues. A lot of interesting things happened on Jan 20th. President Obama was inaugurated (we watched it that morning on the hotel room TV. lol), Dan and I visited Hearst Castle, and also saw one of the most amazing things in nature that I’ve ever really seen.
Hearst Castle is an amazing, and almost stupidly beautiful place. However, my favourite photo of the day isn’t of the castle itself (I could never do it justice anyways). It’s of one of the bonafide Cowboys (lol!) that tend to the cows on the Hearst grounds (and the grounds are huge… like, think Lion King: “everything the light touches” Huge). I took this photo from the tour bus that winds up the mountain to take people to the castle.
Yee haw.
On our way back from the castle, we stopped at the beach to look at this. I was basically dumb founded. I made Dan take me back the next morning before we continued our journey because it was getting dark and we had to leave before I was ‘done’. lol It was the coolest thing I’d ever seen. They were loud, and lazy, and funny, and there were TWO groups this size to view. Seals and pups of all ages. It was a great time of year to go there. I think I’d like to go back and see them every year.
... WOW.
