Chapter 125: On the Road

The weather has been abnormal since last winter, and the wheat production in the snow-capped mountain pastures has been reduced by 5 percent.

San Francisco has been cool in the summer, but it's much hotter this year.

Animals such as sea lions and seals, which had been congregating around Tremmontshire, migrated north in large numbers to chase the fish in the ocean and come to this suitable place for them to live.

It's rare for San Francisco residents to see them without having to travel far away, just in time for their children to go on vacation, and Highway 1 is full of tourists' vehicles.

The sea is dotted with sailboats, and the towering chimneys of large cruise ships emit black smoke, which is quickly blown away by the gusts of sea breeze and disappears into the sky.

From time to time, a playful little dolphin came out of the air, and a beautiful somersault attracted Anya to clap her hands.

The road winds along the cliffs on the shore, and the waves crash against the rock walls, splashing the mud on the roadside.

The sea is so salty that there are few plants to grow there, in stark contrast to the lush greenery of the other side.

The cypress trees thrive in the summer, being blown by the sea breeze all year round and sloping slightly to the east, spaced too far apart to block the sun.

Heading south, the coastal road fades away and the road turns inland again.

The fields on both sides of Highway 1 are covered with plants that resemble ears of rice, artichokes, a local delicacy that Californians love, used for cooking.

Rows of farmhouses along the highway are bustling.

The owner of the farmhouse is selling freshly picked or fried artichokes to tourists, Han Xuan sells Meng to ask Mr. Lopez to stop, and the girl is also coquettish, she seems not used to speaking in this tone, her face is a little red, but compared to the food, everything is worth it.

Deep-fried artichokes are delicious, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, making them a delicious snack perfect for road trips, and the bodyguards haven't eaten anything except for those hot dogs in the morning.

Most of their time at the San Francisco Museum of Fine Arts was spent on the body art exhibition on the second floor, and they didn't meet a real model, otherwise it is still unknown whether they could set off.

The fried artichokes made by the owner of the farmhouse were nearly ten catties, and they ate them all, Anya burped, found that she had no money, and looked at her little friend poorly, her eyebrows wrinkled into embarrassment.

The AA system is popular in European and American countries, and most of the friends who have a good relationship pay their own money, so Han Xuan usually respects her approach very much, and often goes out to play in New York.

Just about to set off, the Cadillac at the end couldn't start, Lopez drove hundreds of meters, received the walkie-talkie and returned to the same place, thinking that maybe there was something wrong with the engine, several people lifted the car cover and took turns to check for a long time, and no problem was found.

Later, they found out that it was out of gas, and they didn't expect the staff of JPMorgan Chase to make such a low-level mistake, so they didn't think about it in this regard, and a young bodyguard strongly suggested that Han Xuan complain about them.

Fortunately, the owner of the farmhouse also had a car at home, and he stored some spare gasoline in the barrel, and enthusiastically half sold and half gave it away to help them fill up, so they set off smoothly.

The roadside vineyards are one after the other, and the half-human-high grape trellis has dense leaves, and the clusters of dark purple grapes hang under the vines, which looks very pleasant.

California has abundant sunshine all year round, and the ground is flat and fertile, making it suitable for growing grapes.

In addition to selling fresh grapes, the wine here is also quite famous, and farmers usually brew some wine, and when the next year someone comes to buy the packaging and sell it to several nearby states, to earn some money to subsidize the family.

Driving on California's Highway 1 is a pleasure and romance.

The fusion of people, sea and sunshine, driving through the mountains and rivers, is a special experience for Anya and her bodyguards.

After passing through the artichoke fields, you will enter a mountainous area of sand dunes.

Han Xuan looked up, the sky was a little dazzling, and the clouds hung low, connecting with the vast sand dunes.

A gentle breeze blows in your face, and a few gliders overhead cross the sky, leaving beautiful arcs in your wake.

The intention of coming out this time was to play, and it was not important to arrive at the destination, urging Lopez to find the glider club, Han Xuan got out of the car and accompanied the girl, sitting on the grass and quietly enjoying the peaceful beauty.

An unknown tree overhead helped block the sun, and the bodyguards bought ice cream and distributed it one by one.

The black suit has long been taken off, and most of them are wearing only vests, getting together to lick ice cream, and the scene has an inexplicable sense of joy.

Han Xuan discovered that the glider was not the last flyer on Highway 1, and that there were many arched, colorful parachutes floating in the sky, and paragliders liked to fly in hang gliders not far from the beach.

The colorful hot air balloon is not very high from the ground, about 100 meters or so, and the two-centimeter-thick rope, which is connected from the ground to the bottom of the wooden basket from which the hot air balloon is suspended, looks like it can only be lifted vertically, and cannot be fluttered at will.

I could vaguely hear someone screaming from above, the sound being blown away by the wind and falling to the ground like a mosquito humming.

In the sky, you can also vaguely see all kinds of kites in the shape of Chinese dragons and sharks, which is the most suitable place for the elderly and children to fly kites when they go out to travel.

It's more like a resort than a glider club, less than 100 meters from the sea, and with so many new things to experience, it's no wonder that the parking lot is full of cars and there are so many guests.

The swimming pool blends in with the surrounding scenery and is backed by seven or eight meters high open-air stones, and the two live in harmony.

There are all kinds of vegetables planted in the open space next to the hotel, some of which Han Xuan has never seen in his life, and the old man who looks like a chef is busy inside, probably preparing ingredients for dinner.

There was a boy who was about twelve or thirteen years old, wearing only a pair of swim briefs, and the yellow swimming ring on his waist was clearly an enlarged version of the bathing duck.

Sensing that the girl didn't pay attention to him, she walked back and forth six times before leaving, shrinking her hands and feet into the water, her eyes never left this side, and she didn't seem to give up.

On the open field in the east, there are many entertainment facilities, at more than two o'clock in the afternoon, there are not many people there, and when she finds that when she speaks, Anya's eyes keep glancing over there, Han Xuan stood up and patted her buttocks, and pointed to the small playground: "Do you want to play?"

"Good. "You don't need to be reserved with a partner," Anya said with a smile.

After sitting for a long time, she suddenly stood up and her legs were a little numb, and Han Xuan quickly grabbed her arm, so she didn't fall.

If you hit 9 balloons with 10 bullets, you can get a souvenir, and if you hit 10 balloons, you can get a rabbit-like doll if you hit them twice, and the prize of the big bear doll is higher than Han Xuan's, and if you lose 10 dollars, you won't even get a souvenir.

Han Xuan felt that he couldn't hold his old face, so he hurriedly invited a sniper who had served in the army, Lieutenant Lopez.
