We drove further into Napa Valley and for some reason there were grape vines everywhere.

Then there were all these big grand houses.

We searched and searched for a coffee shop but couldn't find one anywhere.

The coastline was beautiful all along the drive, we managed to stop for a bit and drive around the little town of Carmel.

Fog started to roll in along the coast, it made for some really amazing sights.

We pulled into Big Sur a little later then we thought and we were able to grab 1 of 3 camping spots left. Tomorrow would be a long driving day trying to get down to LA not too late so we could get lost of rest for running around Disneyland the next day.
