We're down here for two weeks and my fiance is doing a course down here. i just came with cuz i get to take 2 weeks off work and explore Cali for weeks. this is how my day went today:
you pay $5/day and you can pull your car right onto the beach! mostly trucks but there was a Focus, Miata, and some other small hatch's too
it's just open beach as far as you can see
spectacular beach
another spot about 5 mins from our hotel (p.s. we drove over 25hrs on the interstate so the Cruze is a bit dirty haha)
as you can see we REALLY needed those brand new winter tires we had put on 2 days before we left Vancouver. grr
we decided to go for a drive at night and found this road. some MAJOR twisties! every 100m or so the road dipped down and there was a stream that crossed the road. even in our brand new car we had to slow to a crawl to prevent bottoming out coming out of the streams lol
p.s. how's the weather in vancouver?
