Hearst castle

I took a small trip to Hearst castle in San Simeon.
It was first time to drive for such a long hours but now I can drive through LA!

The castle was nice but after seeing so many magnificent buildings in Italy, I missed magnificent buildings in Italy.

 It mustn't been a lot of work to bring all the tools up the the hill by horses back at the time.

I love European villa which has a library and all the decorations all over.
It made me miss Italy a lot. I can't wait to go back.

 There were many nice beaches along highway 101.
It's good for couples. I missed my bf.
Fantastic dining room, but ketchup and mustard??
