My Last Vacation (2)

By: Abdulkareem Alqahtani.


Today, I will continue writing about my last vacation, June 2011, which was in San Francisco. When I decided travelling to San Francisco, I read about Highway one and San Francisco city. Then I wrote down my plan which included the dates, hotels, visited cities, budget, etc. I booked hotels by helpful websites like priceline.com and hotwire.com. I recommend using these websites if you are going to travel over The United States of America. Two days after we finished the final exams of spring quarter 2011, my wife and I have counted on ALLAH, and we started our trip on Sunday Jun 19, 2011 at 7:00 early morning. I had driven to Los Angeles then to Santa Monica where Highway 1 (the Pacific coast Highway) starts, and the Pacific Ocean on my lift side going to the north. Highway 1 has fabulous sceneries where I have never seen like that, every where I can stop and breathe a fresh air and enjoy the beautiful places. I had driven until I arrived Santa Barbara at 1 o'clock. It is romantic and quite city. I went to the downtown where the market street is, and we had our lunch at the Habit Burger Grill Restaurant, waaaw, it was a delicious burger. Then I had driven to San Louis Obispo until we arrived at 4 o'clock evening. I had booked one night at Marriott hotel which is new hotel and very comfortable. We slept early that night after long travel distance. The second day, we woke up at 7:00 am, and we left to the Hearst Castle which is located in San Simeon, approximately 250 miles (400 km) from Los Angeles. It is a National Historic Landmark mansion. I will write soon in details about it in separate blog, and I will continue writing about my trip on the following blogs. Wait for more interesting details………..
