One of the highlights of our trip to California was the drive from Los Angeles to San Francisco. We took California Highway 1, often referred to as the Pacific Coast Highway, most of the way. The dramatic coastline vistas and roads winding through the mountains were well worth the extra time it took to get to the Moore's house.San Simeon is famous for only one thing: it's the home of Hearst Castle, the humble (yeah right) abode of William Randolph Hearst, built in the early 20th century. It was fun to take Caden to "America's Castle", since April and I have traveled Europe so much. We wanted him to experience a little bit of Europe, and Hearst Castle is about as close as it gets to Old World Europe here in the states.
The first pic is of the three of us in the Roman style bathhouse, and the second is totally unrelated to Hearst Castle; it just shows how Caden has fallen in love with his daddy's Camelbak water pack. If you get a chance to take your precious 8 month old to Hearst Castle, we highly suggest that you take it!
