Taking a walk down the Californian coastline is an uplifting experience. On a clear day, to the roar of the Pacific Ocean, you can spot all kinds of wildlife. There are the fat, glossy sea lions that chill out on the rafts at Pier 39 San Francisco like working men after a beer too many, […]

by on January 25, 2011 in Destination, Where to Stay?
