California Highway 1 has a unique geographical environment, it is surrounded by the sea and the sky on one side, the waves crashing on the shore, and the sails are dotted with blue waves; On one side, there are steep cliffs, green mountains, pastures, herds of cattle and horses, and the scenery is breathtaking, and it is really not an exaggeration to call it one of the most beautiful roads in the world.
Although it is said that he has been here once, Qi Ping did not have much mood to enjoy the beautiful scenery that time; And now, it doesn't matter even if it's considered the loneliest Highway 50, because with beautiful people in the company, everywhere is the beauty of the world.
From San Francisco to Los Angeles, along a winding coastline with the Pacific Ocean on one side and steep and towering cliff mountains on the other. In the middle of the car, the scenery is breathtaking, which makes people feel relaxed and happy, as if they are in paradise.
It's hard to imagine that this road is the two most prosperous cities in the world, and there are countless star towns and mansions scattered along the way, which still retain a very primitive and simple style, quiet and natural. This is perhaps thanks to the numerous national and state parks along the way.
Highway 1, a narrow two-way lane, has a strong rustic road atmosphere, nestled between blue and green, sometimes straight, sometimes winding, sometimes flat, sometimes steep, in a steep place, as if it is about to rush into the sea, and then turn around.
The clear blue of the sea, the lush green of the mountains, the purple and red of the flowers, the crystal white of the waves and seabirds, and the bright and golden yellow of the sunset...... You can't help but admire: it's a painting of nature's magic.
This is from south to north, sticking to the west coast all the way to San Francisco; One of the first places to visit is Pismo Beach.
Most of the hotels here are built along the coastline, and the hotel we stayed in was also by the sea, and you could open the windows to see the magnificent and tranquil blue sea. In the distance, as far as the eye can see, the sea is connected to the blue clouds. The most enjoyable thing about staying in this hotel is that when you wake up in the morning, you can see the blue sea that is an arm's length away from you, drink coffee, eat cake, look at the sea, listen to the sound of the waves, smell the smell of the sea, and relax your mind
"Honey, you need to be careful now!"
Wearing the most comfortable home clothes nested in the co-pilot, although Kate usually doesn't like makeup very much, but during the two-day trip, Kate is completely free of powder, and she is now showing the most refreshing taste.
"I know, I'll be careful!" Qi Ping nodded, he was not untargeted.
California Highway 1 is actually just over 1,000 kilometers long, which is not that far, and if you go at 60 kilometers per hour, it will only take about 16 hours. Of course, for Qi Ping and Kate, they are not in a hurry, they are more of a tour, so they stay in fun places a lot.
Soon it will be Santa Barbara, which can be said to be the backyard of Hollywood; Santa Barbara is the main attraction for tourists, one is the sea view, and the other is the small-town atmosphere of Spain.
The center of the town is actually not big, and the architectural style is basically Spanish colonial style, with white walls and red tiles; And places to visit, seaside parks, tropical botanical gardens, and so on.
"I will buy a house here in the future, the environment here is really beautiful." Chiping was attracted to Santa Barbara, where the beautiful sea view was what Chiping longed for.
"You'll need to spend a lot of money, but I'm sure you can do it. I support your choice, I think it will definitely be better, and we will enjoy the most beautiful view. We're just at the beach now, but I think we can one day drive a yacht to see the beautiful sea. Kate laughed and rushed to the beach with Pooh, and a wave hit the beach; Kate still didn't have anything to do, and Pooh ran back in a hurry.
Qi Ping pursed his lips, he felt that it was really not easy to buy a villa with a sea view in Santa Barbara; If you add yachts, it will naturally be unbearable.
Although Qi Ping often feels that he has a lot of money now, compared to such a 'luxury', he is really unbearable.
Santa Barbara, home to college students and retired wealthy and tourists, has a very leisurely pace of life. California is famous for its sunshine and beauty, and Santa Barbara is arguably the best in all of California.
Many wealthy people in the United States are attracted by the climate and scenery here, not to mention the vacation villas of those who are rich; Even those who have money have moved here after retirement, and almost all of them have their own yachts.
Despite the small town center of Santa Barbara, there are plenty of yachts moored by the sea, and there is also a harbor for yachts. It's fair to say that Santa Barbara doesn't have a house under a million dollars, let alone those villas with beautiful views, and tens of millions of dollars are not expensive here.
As for the average house price in the United States, it is less than $200,000!
"Hey man, are they your buddies? I seem to know them. ”
Pooh and King Kong, as well as Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai, are still very attractive, even on the beach, they have attracted a lot of attention; It's just that they're not very big now, and the most important thing is that they're basically around Qi Ping and Kate, so they didn't cause much panic or anything like that.
"If you've seen some of the commercials, I think maybe you know them, they're big stars." Qi Ping was showing off triumphantly, but the middle-aged uncle in front of him seemed to be a little familiar; Maybe it's because Westerners look more alike, anyway, Qi Ping can't remember if he has ever seen this uncle.
It's really a great place, it's full of holiness, serenity, serenity, elegance; And the people here seem to be very friendly and modest.
And Qi Ping, who is not a difficult person to get along with, is actually very cheerful.
Kate covered her mouth with an incredulous look; As for her boyfriend mentioning the word 'star', Kate suddenly felt very ashamed.
"Forrest Kim! Chuck! Sam! Kate reported these names in a row, and Qi Ping first thought that it was this uncle with four children, plus his female companion; Found the answer, Kate's acquaintance.
"Tom. Hanks! ”
Looking at this thick curly hair, a somewhat wide forehead and that fleshy nose, although it looks a little old now, Qi Ping reacted instantly, this is not Hollywood's top superstar Tom. Hanks!
"Forrest Gump", "Desert Island", "Sleepless Nights in Seattle"
Guan Gong played a big knife in front of him, and the class man made an axe to look at Pooh, who was still stupid, and called himself a star in front of Hanks, which was really beyond his strength!
It is said that Santa Barbara is famous because many Hollywood stars and politicians like to buy real estate in this seaside health resort with the Santa Yen Mountains in the back and facing the Pacific Ocean, and Michael Jackson's dream estate is located in this small town. Former U.S. President Ronald Reagan also lived on a peaceful hill in Santa Barbara.
And now, it's actually a big star while walking on the beach.
"I've seen some of their performances and they've been outstanding. Guys, my kids want to take a picture with them, and I actually want to take a picture with them, if you will. "Hanks looks very good, like the honest image he created on the screen, and he is also very approachable.
"No problem, can I upload it on Facebook, it will envy my friends." What kind of star is not a star, although he is not a star chaser, but in the face of Tom. Hanks, it's best to take a group photo in a hurry.
"No problem, absolutely no problem." Tom Hanks smiled and agreed, and beckoned his four children and his wife to come over. Although they can be said to be well-informed, they really don't really have the opportunity to take pictures with such a smart and friendly little animal.
It was a pleasant trip, from the very beginning; And in the process of this trip, it seems to be full of surprises.
