Traveling the Pacific Coast Highway

Golden State of Mind

Traveling the Pacific Coast Highway
Sydney Fanning

Last week I talked about my travels to Las Vegas, and now this week I am continuing the trend of travel into this week's post as well! Coming back last week it was nice to be home for a while, I'm kinda used to having a routine to keep myself on track. On Sundays I run around exploring different farmers markets, my roommate and I like to hangout at the beach, we never miss a sunset, just little things like that I enjoy doing when I'm home. I actually got to venture down to Tussles to watch the Hurley Pro, it was so exciting!

This is an amazing shot my dad caught of Mick Fanning! (Not related)

After a week back at home we packed up again and flew to Santa Cruz. We only stayed there a night but made a couple great stops while we were there.

We stopped at this quaint little pier in Monterey for some clam chowder.

Old Fisherman's Grotto Seafood.

They claim their clam chowder is number one on the pier, I would have to agree it was so delicious!

Just had to take a picture of these crab cakes.

We then drove down to pebble beach to check out the famous golf course and beautiful view. The day we happened to drive down there it was pretty cloudy and a little chilly, but still a really cool stop! This picture was actually taken from the main entrance/ dinning hall type thing, they had left all the doors open and the outside air itself just flowed through the building it was wonderful.

Here's a picture of my dad and I in front of the greens.

The crazy thing is that if it was sunny out that water would be a beautiful bright blue!

This is more like it!

After we left we headed out to Big Sur (not knowing it would be closed due to potential fires, BUMMER).

I can't get enough of these pictures.

I could have sat on that cliff in a lawn chair for days! Not kidding.

One last pic of my new favorite place on earth.

We stayed one night in Santa Cruz, then headed to San Francisco driving along the coast.

We stopped at this lighthouse we found, it was FREEZING outside.

Closer to San Francisco we found this little pull off to the side of the road to catch a better look at this incredible view.

Next stop San Francisco!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
