Big Sur & Monter

The boys did not do much research before we headed out to California.  When we got there, Pumpkin said that he wanted to go hiking.  So, off to Big Sur we went.  Our first stop was the Andrew Molera Beach Trail.












We drove further down CA 1 stopping at Big Sur River Inn.  It was lovely with lots of activity.  We snagged burritos there for lunch.
Yes.  Pumpkin did hike in his Chaco's.  He got them for a graduation gift from his girlfriend.  He's wearing them as much as he possibly can!

This is the Big Sur River Inn.  I love the chairs right next to the river.
 
There wasn't any stopping them.  We headed down to Pfeiffer Falls and did the valley view & pfeiffer falls trail.  It would go from cool to hot as we climbed/hiked.  The boys were troopers making sure their mom could keep up.

We managed to gather up some energy and walk around Monterey that evening.  We found the Coast Guard base, walked the wharf, and looked at a few boats.  We'd willingly come visit Pumpkin if he gets stationed there!

That area is gorgeous! You are a lot more south than where we visited. I am going to have to put this on my bucket list! You got some great photos too!

p.s. I just looked at this post again! I think you should make a photo book. You have so many great pictures and it's one of those trips you could probably look at and never get tired of it.
