Day 26 Route |
They guys left Monterey in the fog but a short 10km from Monterey came to another state nature reserve that Gary was keen to explore.
Point Lobos State Natural Reserve was photographed extensively by both
Ansel Adams and
Edwin Weston, two photographers whose work has inspired Gary over the years. Since they only planned to cover 55km today they took some time and roamed around in the park for a while. Unfortunately, they didn't have wifi when they stopped for the day so we will have to wait for their pictures of the park.

Camping for the night |
They set up camp for the night in Pfeiffer Big Sur State Park in an area set aside for hiker/bikers, which is a good thing since the rest of the park (and nearby motels) was fully booked. They are finding weekends are especially busy in the parks and on the roads so they are only too happy to be off the roads early in the day. Their campsite is among the redwoods with a number of picnic tables for them to choose from and a nearby lodge where they can get their supper. Sounds pretty nice, actually.
Tomorrow (Sunday) is planned to be another short day so they are once again off the road before the traffic picks up with everyone returning home after a weekend in the country.
