a quick trip to Northern California. We explored Monterey, Carmel-By-The-Sea, and Big Sur. The scenery is stunning. The craggy shorline and cypress trees are picturesque. Traveling along CA Highway 1 brings you to several spots for amazing photos of this beautiful coastline. We stayed in an ocean-view townhouse spa suite at the Hyatt Carmel Highalnds Inn. This was our base to explore Monterey, Old Fisherman's Wharf, Pacific Grove, Lovers Point Park, Point Lobos State Reserve, Carmel Beach, Bixby Bridge, McWay Falls and Big Sur.
