Day 13: Monterey, Carmel and Santa Maria

Cherry's Jubilee Motorsports Festival. Our main attraction of today. I personally don't care anything for cars but it's something Christophe really likes and wanted to do while we were here, since Monterey is his dream town. By the sea, focused on cars and with Pebble Beach also being a big location for cars and of course the Laguna Seca Raceway.

There were a lot of nice looking cars and hotrods of which Christophe all took pictures. We spent a few hours there. I wanted to try the 17 mile drive around Monterey and Carmel but traffic was horrible due to roadwork being done almost everywhere and there were nothing but traffic jams so I decided to skip out on it and just ride to our next destination.

Rode through Carmel for a little bit, home of Clint Eastwood where he has his restaurant as well (a bit too expensive, but nice to look at). After that we rode on to Santa Maria where we didn't really do anything special. I wasn't feeling up to much more since today was another 5-6 hour drive in total so it ended with a nice headache from having to concentrate a lot since leaving San Francisco was almost as bad as entering it. We'll see how L.A. is the second time around and what San Diego will be like.

We were looking to visit Universal Studios in L.A. tomorrow but a ticket is 80 dollars, which is a bit expensive, especially this late in our trip so we're going for an IMAX experience instead, to see what that's like, in L.A.

More about this tomorrow!
