California Day 7: Capitola, Santa Cruz, Pescadero, Half Moon Bay & San Francisco

[reviews_and_ramblings]

Today was quite a quiet day... we didn't have anything to actually visit, but we only needed to reach San Francisco. So we decided to stop in every town we liked. The first was Capitola, a little ocean town with a nineteen century taste. Next was Santa Cruz with its amusement park (closed) on the boardwalk front beach. A little detour from the Highway 1 took us to Pescadero, a farm village older than 100 years. Then was Half Moon Bay and the beaches around with all the surfers (I posted a picture took in Capitola, since the ones I took in Half Moon Bay were made with the reflex camera). Half Moon Bay itself was interesting: a tiny village on one side of the highway and an huge and uber-rich golf club (with an impressive hotel on the cliff upon the ocean) on the other side... We arrived in San Francisco at 5 p.m. and we decided to take a free tour (means I didn't use the travel guide): I took pictures here and there, when a building captured my attention...

You went up the California coast and didn't go to Solvang or Hearst Castle?!

I love that you took the flat iron building...that's what that's called isn't it? I LOVE that building. I always imagined living in one of those front edge rooms, or taking it as an office...

You are such a fine photographer. All my pictures end up looking like monkeys stole my camera. You should create a book of your photos!
