So i just realized that i never posted on this site about my recent visit to San Francisco and the beautiful state of California.
My wife and I took about a week off and went from Monday to Monday on a road trip through 3 states and miles and miles of fun.
So we started our trip up the coast in Santa Monica, wasn't too bad.
Took a little detour on a little road off the PCH. Quite twisty and no one on it.
Stopped for the night in Santa Barbara
Also stopped somewhere along the way and to our surprise there were TONS of elephant seals!
Once we made it to San Francisco we didn't drive at all.
We went to Alcataz, rode bikes across the bridge, went to China Town all using the local transportation.

Shoulda hit me up in Santa Barbara, I could have shown you some local twisties. All your pics look like mine except my S is NFR. Been to all of the places in your pics.
Nice, when was this? Maybe I saw you... we went to big sur from June 19-22. I too am going to Vegas soon for the first time.
Our trip spanned from May 14 through May 21. It was quite fun.

We really only spent the night there. The place we stayed at was fantastic and what we did see of Santa Barbara was beautiful. Next time i'm out there i'll post up and meet with some fellow s2kers.
Nice! Your thread will likely be a huge help to Charlie who is doing a trip similar to this right now.
I am curious, what was the road off of PCH in Santa Monica area that you took?
i have no idea what road it might have been.
Actually after looking back, it was nowhere near Santa Monica. It was west of Malibu. Deer Creek rd is the road. I know it was past where we stopped to eat and we ate at Neptune Net so its gotta be Deer Creek.
It was an amazing road and the only other car i saw was a Porsche GT3 that turned onto the road before I did.

LOL I totally just noticed I put the wrong month. I was in big sur from may 19-22. I think I DID see a yellow s2000 while I was there.
I knew it was the wrong month since June isnt until tomorrow. I think my brain is on backwards.
Yeah it was surely a blast. There were plenty of fun roads so even when i was "just driving" i was having fun.
Friends at home thought i was crazy to say i was driving all the way up there but they don't quite understand.
California is a beautiful state to visit. There are plenty of things to do as well.
I really can't wait for my next trip in the S but driving up the coast like that was quite the memory maker and hard to top.
You have to pick the right season, we have 4.
Earth quake, fire, flood and mud slides.
You left out Riots Phil

I see you stopped off at The Ragged Point Inn in between San Simeon and Big Sur. Nice place.
