I flew to Los Angeles on a Monday afternoon and met Joe, Claudia and Margret for dinner that night. The next morning, we all climbed into their rental car. It was Margret's first visit to the Golden State and for the next four days, she had a front row seat to view our central coast, as we travelled up Highway 1 from the LA area to the Monterey Bay.

After Monterey, I left the group to return home, while the New Yorkers continued their California tour. Click on the photos below to see three sets of pictures from my part of their California road trip.
