Northern California Coast

2008 West--35th Anniversary, California, Road Trip, States

We drove south on US-101 trying to make time. We did stop at one California state park to drive through a giant redwood, but then scooted over to CA-1 at Olema and visited the campground where we stayed on our Honeymoon. Crossed the Golden Gate bridge into San Francisco then got confused trying to follow the directions on the GPS. We managed to find our way into the Redwood City area. We calmed our nerves at Kepler’s Books then met up with Mary Lou and followed her to her new digs where we met her housemate, Francesca, and settled in for a pleasant evening.

The purpose of our trek to Strawberry Hill House in Twickenham in the southwest of London was to see a recently recovered bronze bust of the Emperor Caligula but we discovered so much more in the recently restored 18th Century “little Gothic castle” built by Horace Walpole.
