California Trekkers Have Exhilarating Ride To Big Sur


After our first night sleeping in tents, we were up and ready to go earlier than usual. Our first stop was a bike shop in Monterey, which was on the way, thankfully. The steep hills made it necessary for us to have an early lunch. Realizing the closest grocery store was 27 miles away from the campground, we quickly shopped for dinner and breakfast and took off. We stopped a couple times for the great views, but we didn't have to stop much after that because the views were constantly around us. The strong winds buffeted us from all directions, making the climbs and descents both terrifying and exhilarating. We were all thrilled when we finally reached our campsite. We dined on tacos and, of course, more Oreos. Tomorrow we can sleep in and spend the day exploring Big Sur!
