I went on a day trip with my sister and her kids down to Big Sur. We stopped by Pfieffer Beach, which has a couple tunnels in these big rock hills through which the surf crashes. It was a really nice day out as well.

Looking down the hill.
On the way up.
A big rock.
Theses stones are actually the remnants of some ancient fortifications as the local population used to use this hill as a fort in times of need.

Ahhh white birch trees, I miss seeing those. We don't have many of them here in the southern USA, but when I lived in NY we had tons of them

Silver Birch is my favourite. I love touching the velvety bark.
