For the last two days we've been driving through California, making our way to Portland, Oregon. Our travels thus far have been full of beautiful surprises and good vegan eats. Gosh, I hope this good fortune continues! I'd always heard "you must drive the PCH from LA to SF once in your life" and now I know why. The Pacific Coast Highway is absolutely breath-taking! Here are some of the photos -- for the rest, check flickr (even catch some photos of Scott & I!!) In 800 miles, it's been both brutally cold and smothering hot. We've driven adjacent to the coast, alongside endless grape vineyards, through acres of produce, acres of dry, barron plains, over and around mountains, through enchanting dark green forests and next to a snow capped mountain (in July!). I think it's fair to say no other state is quite as diverse as California!
