I was a special gift to my owner, on Valentines Day 1996 from someone very special. We are embarking on a bit of travel, so you will be able to follow our adventures and tales, as I keep this sort of diary for my owner. You could say this is my version of Chaucer's Canterbury Tales. Something to keep you amused while we are on our journey. Please add comments, we like to hear back from you.

Road Trip.





Monday April 30th, 2007. Start of the road trip down the coast to LA. Headed down to Hertz and we asked "do you know the way to San Jose" and Ellen said sure Sir, you do a right on to Geary and then right on to Polk and follow the road all the way to San Jose. That was the start of the road trip from San Francisco to LA. Once we got to San Jose we headed towards the coast, and followed Route 1 down the coast. Thru Santa Cruz and on to Monterey, stopped at Skipper's diner for lunch and then headed on to Pebble Beach. My owner decided that $9 to see a golf course was a bit much so we headed into Carmel and enjoyed the beach for a while. Pt Lobos was our next stop and this National Park was a favourite spot for Edward Weston, the American Photographer, so my owner spent a bit of time on the tracks and trails taking photographs etc. As sunset approached he headed on down Route 1 thru to Big Sur in the Los Padres National Forest. It was like travelling the Great Ocean Road, the water on one side and steep cliffs, or forests on the other.
