Santa Cruz, CA

---

West Cliff Drive is a popular spot in Santa Cruz for walking and biking. As the name suggests, it's right on the edge of a cliff overlooking the ocean. I took most of these photos while Frank was walking Charlie.

Here's a girl waving at the boat.

This was taken in the early morning, so the fog is just beginning to burn off. You can see the lighthouse in the distance.

Looking north. You can still see some fog lingering on the top of this photo. Off to the right are some sea gulls. The path in the foreground leads down to the beach.

Surf's Up!

More of the coast looking north.

The Santa Cruz lighthouse.

The wharf. In the foreground you can see a surfer and some commercial fishing boats. Then there's the wharf with folks fishing, shops, and restaurants. Let's not forget the sea lions. Lots of them hang out here. The Beach Boardwalk amusement park is visible in the background. You can see the Giant Dipper, the wonderful old wooden roller coaster.
