... it well after 3pm thanks to the numerous wave watching stops.<br><br>I carried on up California Highway one and could see why it is called the shoreline highway. The only downside was that I was having to negotiate the tight turns in the fun bus rather than my S3 &#8211; had a few 'oooohhhh she-diddly-it moments! The amazing thing was the road was full of cyclists &#8211; more two wheels than four despite the tight turns and 1 in 4 ...

Within minutes of arriving at the Beachcomber, I asked myself why not stay over another day and rest up my hands from the exciting switchback excursion. I have to say that despite exercises specifically to keep them in good condition, my hands remain the longsuffering victims of really long or arduous roads. So I did stay over and spent the day ...

... to high 60s and we rolled along the no barriers road to Fort Bragg. The Beachcomber is in a great spot. Just walk behind it to the long boardwalk then descend to the beach, or walk across a bridge into the downtown.<br>I walked around the beach then headed into town to the North Coast Brewing Co. restaurant, on the recommendation of the desk clerk. An excellent choice and I thanked him later.<br>

This was a great plan and it was definitely fun for about the first hour or two but after a grueling 5 to 6 hours of what seemed to be over a thousand left and rights turns that boarder lined a case of insanity.

... following day. I wore a pair of socks that I purchased there and liked them so much that I wanted to go back for more. <br><br>We visited Glass Beach, but didn't find the glass pebbles that give the beach its name. There were several groups of kids looking for the glass or something so we decided to go in a different direction. We saw several tidal pools and ...

... and anyway what are you wasting you day for?  Get off your computer and go and live your own life instead of reading about ours - it's not as if we are doing anything anyway!  Put on some music, let EVERYTHING go and DANCE!   This maybe the last entry, cause we just want to live rather than telling you about our living.  If you really want to know get us on skype, drop us an email or join us for a dance!  We'll love you all even more if you do!  Spirit &amp; Sorcha (aka Simon &amp; Claire)  

... on. We also stumbled upon several other smaller lakes that were both very nice as well along with part of a hill that had this cool red sand exposed. We hit the town of Willits about 4:15 p.m. and we were welcomed with a sign that called the town "The Gateway to the Redwoods". Not very long after we passed that sign did we realize how correct it was. After leaving Willits we started the really curvy section of ...
