Wednesday, September 27, 2007 - Made my way up the pacific coast highway today from Montana de Oro in Los Osos, headed for my next campsite at Sunset Beach in Monterey Bay - about a 4 hour drive on PCH 1. Highway 1 hugs the pacific coast as it winds around mountains for hundreds of miles. The scenery however at this stretch of PCH 1 is incredible, as your elevation is constantly changing. Just feet off the road is the giant blue expanse in dramatic fashion; I swear I could see the curvature of the earth from up here. Saw tons of wineries as I drove through San Luis Obispo and Big Sur.
Stopped in Cambria for a late lunch at a local restaurant, which actually I believe was a house converted into a restaurant. The interior is all hardwood floor, many small rooms with tables in them, a basement dining area, and patio dining. I sat outside in the front, but felt like the restaurant greeter. Every person that walked in said hello, the waiters knew every patron's family, where their kids were going to school, etc. Love that small town feeling.
