Morro Bay and Pismo Beach

Our first stop of the day was Morro Bay. There was this huge rock right in the middle of the bay (kinda like stone mountain). We drove out to the bottom of it, which has been turned into a park. Very nice! We climbed on the rocks and got splashed by the ocean waves. Then we went to a nice little bistro and sat outside for lunch. A very gorgeous day.



Our second beach stop was Pismo Beach. There really isn't much beach anywhere along the coast, just rocks and steep cliffs. Very beautiful, but not the beaches I am use to on the Eastern coastline.

Today, we took a southern drive down the coast to Pismo Beach. We saw unusal squirrels hanging around on the rocks. If you look real hard or enlarge the picture you will see one. The were loads of them with little tunnels under the rocks. There were no trees around, so I don't know what they eat. This one was sun bathing.
