Honeymoon!!!

We had a wonderful honeymoon driving along the coast. We spent our first night in La Jolla and had a beautiful view of the ocean from our
balcony.

The next night we had our reception, and then left Saturday morning for our trip up the coast. We had a fun drive, even though we did run into some pretty bad traffic at a couple points. It was such a beautiful drive overlooking the ocean!


We're having so much fun!!! Are we there yet??


What a pretty drive

Our first stop on the trip was Monterey and we loved it. Our room had a hot tub and a fireplace, which was nice because it was a little colder there. We enjoyed celebrating New Year's there with our party hats, noise makers, and sparkling cider.


Getting cozy by the fireplace.


We took a beautiful scenic drive. Katie enjoyed it so much she wanted to get out at every turnout to take pictures.


Happy New Year!!!!


We had the best party supplies ever!

We then drove down the coast to Cambria and saw some elephant seals, more ocean, and Hearst Castle before heading for home.


No, those aren't big rocks; they're HUGE elephant seals.


Elephant seals are really cute as babies, but that's about it.


Sunset from our porch.


The ocean was literally across the street from our room, so we took a walk down to the water.

We had such a fun trip and the weather was wonderful. There was one day that we had some light rain, but for the most part it was pure sunshine.
