San Simeon

Piedras Blancas


The lazy elephant seals sunbathing on the beach.


*sigh* life is sooo hard (scratch, scratch...)




Hearst Castle


William Hearst, eccentric multi-millionaire and newspaper magnate, built a ranch on top of a mountain. So big that you need a bus to take you from the parking lot to the so called castle: the Big House, three "small" mediterranean revival style guest houses, an extensive art collection, tennis courts, swimming pools, gardens, a private zoo, terraces...



it even has its very own Spanish cathedral...


...and a private movie theatre.
