[QUOTE="MrF, post: 167926, member: 10292"] I'd stop in Cambria, CA. It's about 40 miles south of Monterey, and it's a simple little seaside town right off Hwy. 1. There are motels (legitimate, old-school, drive up in front of your room motels) that sit right across the street (a 2-lane, 25mph street) from the ocean. My fiancee and I went there for several weekends and it always felt like I was stepping back into the 1960's. I actually proposed on the beach there. I only have one shot in my gallery from Cambria (it's the sunset), but I'll try to dig up some more. While you're there, check out the 'downtown' (really just a main street) with some neat little shops and galleries. I'd also pay the $25 for one of the guided tours of Hearst Castle. It was built by William Randolph Hearst as a private residence and is ridiculously opulent. It's now a museum run by the state of CA. It's also on a hill overlooking the coast, so the views are amazing. [/QUOTE]
