This long stretch of California is so awesome one has to see it personally to verify its authenticiy. Breathtaking, really. Our family took a vacation where we drove our own car from Louisiana to CA back in '75 (I'm 69 now, so this was a long time ago now.) Seeing this remarkable and dramatic scenary in your own car is the only way to do it. It's so beautiful that it's like out of someone's dream or a painting of beautiful places. Words can't really describe the beauty. You have to experience it and see for yourself to verify that it really is real. The amazing beauty of the California coast in this stretch of beach south of San Francisco is something everyone should treat themselves to at least once in their lives.🤩

Big Sur section on Pacific Coast Highway is the best. I travelled through this area on my bike tour last month. Amazing views. 👍🙂

Damn that's nice. I planned a California road trip in 2020 pre-world-breaking, and Big Sur was definitely on the list. I missed out on so much fun it seems!

I’m planning a honeymoon in this area! Thanks for the beautiful footage and helpful information!

Lived here for over 4 years. It is beautiful. But if you are used to humidity like the east coast the weather is a huge adjustment😂

I'm going to guess that Dave is a Capricorn and Deb is an Aries.

Law enforcement reportedly was seen doing drugs in their truck and then after scaring children

Don't go to Monterey unless you are a natural blond person. As for being black, forget about it!
