For my birthday Jen rented us a car and we drove down to Big Sur. It's probably the most heavenly place I've ever been to. The white dream-sequence like hue around everything is not a photshop trick - it's just the way the place looks. The fog hanging over the Pacific makes the ocean and sky look bright white at times. Most of these shots are about 200 ft above sea level on the edge of cliffs that drop off into the ocean.
The first photos are of the restaurant we ate lunch at - Sierra Mar. The waiter there told us about Big Sur's only beach access. You get there via an unmarked 2-mile single lane road that leads to a secluded beach bookended by 200ft cliffs.
You'll see some pics of the beach but it's hard to capture it's beauty. Finally, you'll see the legendary Bixby bridge. It's the one you always see when someone's driving Scenic Rt.1like on those "visit California" commercials.
This is a warning for anyone who comes to visit us: we will drag you here.
