Hwy 1. what can I say? Dang, this drive is beautiful. Now before I go on about how beautiful the drive is lets just say it’s a lot colder than I expected. The California central coast must be the break over region for temperatures. It feels like fall and here it’s the end of June. Next time I’ll pack a heavy jacket. OK now that we have that out of our systems….this drive is amazing. How beautiful is this stretch of the American landscape? (rhetorical question)
This place is beautiful! I think this drive reminded me of so many places, but it still has its own California vibe. We started out with fog, then a little bit of rain, lots of wind, and then around a curve the sun came our to warm us up. This is the kind of drive you remember for years. Do it.

We arrived around 2:30 after flying and driving all day. After we settled into the Hotel Zoso, it was time to explore the first stop, the Palm Springs Art Museum Architecture and Design Center. Karen and Lexy braved the heat with me. (lol it’s a dry heat.) The museum featured many architects and their designs. A must-see if you’re surrounded by modern architecture. It’s so refreshing seeing modern designs held up and revered. My daughter said she really enjoyed the museum, which tells me she gets it.
After the visiting the museum we ventured into town on foot and took in many designs. I feel like I’m walking through a living museum. So glad we added this to our trip.
