The kids had the day off from school today for Veteran’s Day, so David and I decided to take the day off from work so we could do something fun. It’s been awhile since we’ve had an activity free day between jiu-jitsu, piano class, volleyball, and Chinese school. I’ve been wanting to go to Big Sur because of all the scenic views we’ve heard about and seen from friends and social media so we made a day trip down for some hiking and fun. Our first stop was Julia Pfeiffer Burns State Park. The pictures and reviews online were really good so we stopped here. Only it was VERY foggy and we could barely see the ocean. The hike was still nice though. There was a beautiful waterfall and the kids had fun playing around the water.

Our second stop was Point Lobos State Natural Reserve, just outside of Carmel. Again a beautiful place, but it was so foggy! We plan to come back in the summer when the sun is out and we can see the ocean!

We ended our day having dinner at our favorite seafood restaurant along Hwy 1, Phil’s Fish Market
