Apr - May 2013 California Road Trip


All photos for this trip can be found in our
2013 Spring California Photo Album
Some are also shown in our weekly blogs.


This was basically a lazy trip down the west coast. We pretty much followed highway 101 from the time we entered Washington state, via the Victoria to Port Angeles ferry, south along the coast through Oregon into northern California to Santa Cruz and back again. The following map shows the approximate journey for the drive south. We generally avoided I-5 except for Portland to Seattle on the way back north. The drive north was generally the same with some deviations which are shown on the individual weekly post maps.


The highlight activity planned for the trip was a weekend in San Francisco. Our friend Marian flew down from Vancouver and we booked rooms at the Queen Anne Hotel on Sutter Street just up from the Japan Center. Nice weekend.
