The second day, God made heaven and we were at their doors but still did not know ... We woke up in Cayucos: breakfast, gasoline, car washing, showering, packing, put everything in the car (not in that order) and we continue our journey north. Very beginning we had to stop driving, the coast was spectacular, we start again and begin to see incredible scenery inland and there that we turn, although not the plan, one of the little road on the right. Cows, farm, green valleys and mountains that Asturianas but where are we?
try to follow but we came as a surprise a left INCREDIBLE beach and clear, we had to stop. Up the beach, down the beach, which apes the rocks, the seagulls, the fauna, flora ...
Are we again? But little, eh! Sea lions because voilà! Thus, a beach town in any joint, stop. A silly, foolish to stop so it was time to eat and we were eating a bag of Doritos, we left the car and we were approached by a family of birds, so we looked at so tender so I started pulling doritos , just by feeding a squirrel by hand and almost forgetting the main reason we had stopped in the very moment of cooperation between species we saw a sign "Do not feed the animals" that we never found out whether he was referring to the squirrels, crows, sea lions, the other gulls and similar birds ... just in case we end up being fed to this squirrel ate both cheeks and we sucked the tiny hands with the language that was (then in the car when we realized the amount of diseases transmitted by these bugs and we did not have a sad paw wipe clean our hands we found less tender all).
Once we saw the squirrel away reeling from the fat that we, we approached the sea lions everything we could and started to make photos. Carmen began recording a video without telling us and caught us talking mu and Rogelia style and Puri, I've been tempted to put subtitles to the video is very short and make a link, but then I thought that maybe since I was not going you look so funny ... Meanwhile we make our own theory of the Origin of Species: squirrel fed by tourists gull or crow (we did not have very clear) from there to the pelican, pelican to seal and seal a sea lion. We follow a little more, we returned to quickly stop in stunning beaches, we enter the County of Monterey. In our map, we featured a town called GORDA and we were willing to stop, but what a disappointment, there was no town or anything like that, just a bar-restaurant and a souvenir shop.
ate the cheapest I was in the letter that was a hot dog with chips and nachos and was not at all cheap. We got the car ready to go. We wanted to sleep somewhere in the Big Sur area was where we were, but there were places to sleep, just beaches, cliffs, beaches. We stopped at a site, I do not know if with intent to sleep or what, but the site was incredible and we caught it, had some small houses and we we were eager to ask how much they cost, the place was also a bar and restaurant with gift shop (also in the map appeared as a people) was on a cliff and from there you could see miles and miles of beach.
Trapped, trapped by the site ... we decided to go and here was the highlight of the day. We were on top of a hill, so the cliff was so spectacular and the road (two lanes and two directions, ie one lane in each direction) began to descend downhill. The regular driver was me, the occasional was Carmen and there was no conducted so far was Salvi. So no, Salvi was being silly, just for a change, Carmen explained four basic things automatic car and started down, we joined the road and going slowly, slowly, Sage: "Hey girls, for speed in this car is to press very hard on the accelerator is not it? "and Carmen then began to laugh, endlessly, endlessly, when he was able to breathe said:" Salvia has not started! "and that we with the inertia of the downhill, in our little road two-way without starting the car! With the attack of laughter that gave them (not me, I became hysterical) pan pin down the slope, the ditch again, this time cut down and pulling.
saw the famous bridge of Big Sur. And we, we came back to stop a revolt in which he had a spectacular redwoods and a bridge, let the car go super far and played the way to the sequoias we came a spectacular snake that gave us scared to death, on our return , the bitch, was still there and scare us again. We were beginning to be sooo tired and Carmen coined the phrase "more up front, more beautiful" to dissuade us every time we tried to stop to see the landscape, and the phrase became the theme of the trip because there was no way but forward. We wanted to find a place to sleep. We went through a couple of "village" style wooden scary horror movie in the woods where you end up dying all the above were all full, we assumed that because people had not seen enough scary movies. We saw a species-HOTEL RANCHO and stopped at the door to ask about prices, Carmen was driving and it was easier to ask what made the threat of the ball spend hot but we listened to the occasion did a English grammar, but obviously with the intention to speak English and I was as follows: "For Sleeping? "Which meant" How much is a room to sleep in this hotel please? "The guy told us that $ 400 and went running. The following was a campsite, we were defeated, the girl told us all we could offer was a barracks for $ 70 went to see them, and it was getting dark. The nant were a plastic sheet with three foam inside, no electricity, no water, the bathroom was very far away (across the river) took a couple of laps, we started to hit them out and we just went, the only good thing is that we had to sleep in the forest of huge redwoods. That and we did not know what to expect to reach the next town. Driving at night, mashed and holding the lights from the Americans that no one knows why not regularly removed when crossed with other cars. A total exhaustion, had lost all hope when we saw signs of civilization and soon PLOF! such a commercial complex with 24 hour pharmacy, grocery stores, fast food restaurants, etc. we rushed like beasts to the pharmacy 24 hours, which actually have food and everything. We lost (I think the state of fatigue that had) a lot of things that were lowered to one dollar and we just bought the most unlikely given our situation: that had nothing to lead us to the mouth, or bedding. Among others: a glitter nail polish YELLOW would later star in a promotional event for this our country, Spain, a lipstick, a trap glasses (because so far our favorite custom in the car was sitting on top of what pillars, glasses , maps, keys, mobile ...) loaded with these things as useful and a half liter bottle of wine went to the box and here came the second phrase of the day after the cashier had told us it typical to have good night, I was to say "equally happy night, by the way where are we?" the girl was surprised naturally or artificially and I do not know! and told us, you are in Caramel! Yupiiii! Search for hotels, discard one that offered us a fireplace in the room and the hotel just a guy who hit us very well because it gave us sherry and biscuits and a good price. The room was amazing and we still had the courage to return to the same area before to buy food, cook, eat, drink up the bottle (about half that because he was pugnacious noses) and sleep in Normandy !
