Day 53 : To our final Destination

Well this epic journey is almost over.  Today we headed to our final destination before heading home on Sunday.  Our final destination is Marina CA which is a little north of Monterey Bay CA.  We decided to make a quick detour to another winery that was recommended to us when we were at the Tobin James winery in Paso Robles.  We headed up Highway 1 to Sans Sebastian to Hearst Estate Winery.  We have to say we enjoyed several of their wines and bought a half a case.  We are an easy sale for wineries that have good wine.  After our wine tasting, we headed to Highway 101 to head up coast to Marina.  Colleen absolutely refused to allow me to take Highway 1 the whole way and after the episode in St Louis, I did not argue with her to much.  We did stop by the coast to take a quick jaunt on the beach before heading north which was quite nice.  We arrived at our RV site in Marina around 3pm and got settled in.  The RV resort is right next to the beach path so we took a hike to the beach to enjoy the beautiful and amazingly tranquil beach in Marina.  For a good while we were the only ones on the beach for a good 300 yards.  I am still amazed how cold it is on the coast, as we traveled north and got on Highway 101 the temperature rose by probably 25-30 degrees and as soon as we got back on the coast the temperature drop again to the mid 60s.  Weather is an amazing thing that I will probably never understand, but neither do most meteorologists.   Well we will being resting here for two nights before we make our trek home to Folsom on Sunday.

Beautiful CA coast, too bad the water is so cold!!!
