A wonderful drive

Today (right now in fact) we are traveling from Monterey to Pismo Beach. It's a beautiful drive with nerve wracking turns, long drops and crashing aqua waves. There are long grasses with fuzzy / feathers on their tops and monarch butterflies flying by (so Laura tells me)

I'm currently relaxing in the car with Isaac while Laura takes Alice to see some elephant seals. I wouldn't call this "the road less traveled" on this holiday weekend, but it's surely the slow way. Now I just need a lateé and pastries to munch on by the seaside and my day would be complete.
