We were surprised to see David this morning--he arrived in camp after dark. We had a schedule to keep this morning. Be out of camp by 8, back track 2 miles to restaurant for breakfast, and then back track another 3 miles to the entrance for the Hearst Castle tour. There were lockers where we locked up our panniers and a place to lock our bikes so we felt safe leaving them. We watched a 40 min. IMAX movie on William Randolph Hearst and then got on the bus for our ride to the top of a mountain for our tour of the Hearst Castle. After the tour, they let you roam around the outside as long as you want seeing gardens, fountains, swimming pools and tennis courts. We felt the tour was very well done and worth the $25 charge.
At 2 p.m. we were on Highway 1 again traveling south. We had a tail wind again which helped carry us down the road. At one point Sharla was amazed as she was going 24 mph on flat terrain without pedaling. The scenery shifted from majestic cliffs to flat, sandy beaches that attracted a lot of kite surfers--it's easier to pedal too. Had another perfect temperature day. We can better understand why so many people choose to live in central and southern California coastal areas because of their weather.
