Traveling the Pacific Coast Highway

Golden State of Mind

Traveling the Pacific Coast Highway
Sydney Fanning

Last week I talked about my travels to Las Vegas, and now this week I am continuing the trend of travel into this week's post as well! Coming back last week it was nice to be home for a while, I'm kinda used to having a routine to keep myself on track. On Sundays I run around exploring different farmers markets, my roommate and I like to hangout at the beach, we never miss a sunset, just little things like that I enjoy doing when I'm home. I actually got to venture down to Tussles to watch the Hurley Pro, it was so exciting!

This is an amazing shot my dad caught of Mick Fanning! (Not related)

After a week back at home we packed up again and flew to Santa Cruz. We only stayed there a night but made a couple great stops while we were there.

We stopped at this quaint little pier in Monterey for some clam chowder.

Old Fisherman's Grotto Seafood.

They claim their clam chowder is number one on the pier, I would have to agree it was so delicious!

Just had to take a picture of these crab cakes.

We then drove down to pebble beach to check out the famous golf course and beautiful view. The day we happened to drive down there it was pretty cloudy and a little chilly, but still a really cool stop! This picture was actually taken from the main entrance/ dinning hall type thing, they had left all the doors open and the outside air itself just flowed through the building it was wonderful.

Here's a picture of my dad and I in front of the greens.

The crazy thing is that if it was sunny out that water would be a beautiful bright blue!

This is more like it!

After we left we headed out to Big Sur (not knowing it would be closed due to potential fires, BUMMER).

I can't get enough of these pictures.

I could have sat on that cliff in a lawn chair for days! Not kidding.

One last pic of my new favorite place on earth.

We stayed one night in Santa Cruz, then headed to San Francisco driving along the coast.

We stopped at this lighthouse we found, it was FREEZING outside.

Closer to San Francisco we found this little pull off to the side of the road to catch a better look at this incredible view.

Next stop San Francisco!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
