Started our drive up highway 1 towards Monterey and Santa Cruz. After a few miles we come to a sign which said elephant seal viewing. So we pulled over and there were loads of california seals, elephant seals and another type which I can't remember the name of! The elephant seals are huge and it's amazing to see them move their giant bodies around.
Highway 1 is a pretty narrow and windy but you get some amazing views which make the slightly hair rising ride worth while. Although I think we were concentrating so much on the road that we completly forgot to stop and take any pictures! So you'll just have to believe us that the views are great, or come here yourselves to see them, or I guess you could google it! It was pretty slow going but eventually we made it to the other end. Had a quick look round Monterey before carrying on to Santa Cruz. We found a really nice motel near the sea front, it even has free chocolate cookies!
