A Nice Day in California (Pigeon Point Lighthouse)


Used to be a jewel on the California coast, the lighthouse now definitely needs repair.
Every time I visit the lighthouse, I feel an yearning to just sit here and watch the sea. Yet, I have miles to go.
The fog house was always closed when I was here. 
Looking at the fog house and the lighthouse keeper's place (now a souvenir shop).
Today the California coast looks very Mediterranean.
A whale bone, looking at the sea.
On a clear day, the view is breathtaking.
On the trail around the lighthouse. 
A 180 degree panorama. The camera's built-in stitch algorithm is yet to be improved.
Watched an Italian movie shot in Sicily(the Purple Sea) last night. Though the movie was not too great, the beautiful Mediterranean scene, the rocky shore, the sapphire sea, immediately reminded me California coast (especially Big Sur). So this afternoon, after taking my car back from service, I was on the road.
