Day 13 - LA to Big Sur

Day 13 - Los Angeles, CA to Big Sur, CA via the Pacific Coast Highway

Highlights:
  • Woke up an hit the road taking Route 1 (the Pacific Coast highway)
  • Amazing scenery up the coast, driving through small surfing towns and along cliffs overlooking the ocean
  • Passed through Malibu, Santa Barbara, Santa Clara among others
  • Planned on camping, but the weather didn't cooperate, so we found a small wood cabin instead...turned out to be the right move because it rained all night and into the morning!
  • Chilled out till midnight and then took a 30 minute drive to the Esalen Hot Springs that are only open to non-residents from 1 am to 3 am
  • Esalen was very mistical and exciting. We delighted ourselfs in the hot mineral baths and caught sight of an extremely rare natural phenomenon...a moonbow / lunar rainbow / white rainbow!!
  • We later found out thet Adam's Father, Uncle and Brother had all spent a significant amount of time at Esalen their past!!!
