NEW HOME!!!

Okay, so this post is coming a day late, but we've been busy getting settled into our NEW HOME!!!  In any case, let's go back a day...

After leaving San Francisco yesterday afternoon, we stopped to pick up a new bike rack for Alie's car and then headed for the highly recommended California Coastal Route 1 for the journey south.  After passing a sign just south of Monterey that said "CURVES AND HILLS NEXT 63 MILES" we knew we were in for a treat.  This is what most of our drive looked like:

You can see the road up ahead in that photo just carved right into the side of the mountain.  It was slow driving for a few hours, but absolutely worth it for the breathtaking scenery.  Pictures do it better justice than my text, so check out our album of photos linked here. We even caught the last sliver of sunset here:

After arriving in town last night a few hours later than we expected, we settled in, met our new roommate Jared, and our other four "roommates":  Moo, Chotchke and Tooky, and some other cat that is too elusive for either a photo or a name, so far.  So our house is pretty sweet, complete with a lovely living room, a big kitchen, and our cozy bedroom.  

We spent today doing some grocery shopping, building up bikes, and exploring in town.  A tasty dinner at home rounded out the day, and we are so excited to see the country tomorrow on our first bike ride of the season!!!
