The city traffic sucks but there is some pretty cool stuff to do.
Yosemite is magnificent. My personal favorite beautiful place so far.
They win hands down for the most impressive trees.
Amazing rugged coastlines.
Wow, there are a lot of Murres. It is a penguin-looking bird that roosts on off shore rocks in the 10,000s. It looks like the surface is crawling.
Everything is expensive.
Three months south to north and we still skipped a lot of things that we will have to find time to come back to see!
