Northern California Trip We flew into San Francisco on 7/1/2005 (photos). On 7/2, we drove
south along the coast through Santa Cruz to Monterey, and continued through
Big Sur to Cambria on 7/3 (coast photos). On 7/4, we
visited the incredible Hearst Castle attraction (photos). We then drove inland to the Sierra Nevada
mountains, and had 3 full days in Sequoia/Kings Canyon National Park (photos) and 4 full days in Yosemite National Park (photos). We then drove
the entire length of Tioga Road through Tioga Pass to exit Yosemite at the
eastern gate. Our route took us past
Mono Lake, northward through Nevada to Lake Tahoe (photos). Finally, we drove through Sacramento
(where we saw our older daughter, who was on a cross-country bus trip) and
back to San Francisco for our 7/15/2005 flight back home. After 2 weeks of scenic splendor and gorgeous
Northern California weather, it was truly difficult to return to our East
Coast reality, not to mention work !!! All text and photos are Copyright © 2005, David
