Mine and Andy’s honeymoon was short yet magical. We only had
a few days after our wedding and before school to take a little trip, but it
was so worth it. We drove from Bakersfield, CA to Cambria, CA on a sunny
December day. As we started to approach the coast, the flat farm land of
Kern County turned into rolling green hills. Once in Cambria, we relaxed into
our little cottage cabin that was nestled in a hilly wooded neighborhood that
overlooked the ocean.
After settling in, we took a stroll down the mountainside to
Main Street where we browsed through various antique shops and art galleries.
The next day, after a café breakfast on the patio, we took a drive along the
coast and then experienced an amazing tour of the Hearst Castle. We then
concluded our day by observing Elephant Seals on the beach.
On our last day in Cambria we took our time saying goodbye
to the friendly neighborhood cat while we watched the New Year’s Parade. On our
way back to Bakersfield, we stopped by Jack Creek Farms where we sampled apple
cider, honey, and delicious homemade popsicles. It was so nice to just relax
for a few days and take the time to soak in the beauty of the world.
