Sacramento
25 kwietnia 2023, Stany Zjednoczone ⋅ ☀️ 29 °C
From San Francisco, we drove to Sacramento for our next house-sit in Fair Oaks. Here, we met Kiersten, Jaime, and Griffin, who hosted us for the night before heading away on holiday. We stayed here for 2.5 weeks, looking after their 3 cats: Manolo, Isadora, and Kitty. The house was like staying at a retreat, with a tranquil backyard, pool, and spa. It even had local peacocks roaming around! Of which we were instructed to slingshot out of the trees...

Here are some highlights of what we got up to during our stay:

× LOTS of sunning, reading, and swimming
× Biked along the American River Bike Trail
× Visited the markets and jazz fest in Folsom Historic Village
× Visited wineries in Amador ($15 wine tastings) and Napa ($60 wine tastings)
× Kayaked in Folsom Lake and saw deer
× Went into Sacramento to the Kings fan zone to watch the basketball
× Explored Old Sacramento mining town and visited a brewery
× Drove through snowy mountain roads to the stunning Lake Tahoe
× Day tripped to Reno and lost $40 quicksmart to the pokies and roulette Czytaj więcej

San Francisco
19 kwietnia 2023, Stany Zjednoczone
We loved San Francisco! Our first few nights were spent at a hotel in Union Square, which is the downtown shopping district. However, we spent most of our time elsewhere - thanks to the awesome public transport system - this was easy!

Our first touristy adventure was hiring bikes and cycling across the Golden Gate bridge. This gave us amazing views looking back on the city, as well as passing by the Marina District, which is lined with incredible houses!

That same night, we went to watch the Giants vs. Mets baseball game, and although the Giants lost, we went for kick-ons at a cocktail bar we spied, called Peacekeeper.

The next day, we explored Haight Street and some of Golden Gate Park (we missed 420 on Hippie Hill by one day...). Haight Street was super quirky and had a hippie vibe to it as well. I loved the vintage shops and would have bought a lot if I had any room!

Later that afternoon, we moved to stay in Cow Hollow for our house sit, looking after 3 cats. We much preferred this area of town, with its local grocers, bars, and restaurants. Plus, a lot less homeless people. Whilst in Cow Hollow, we visited Mrs Doubtfire's House, Lombard Street (the world's crookedest), visited Alcatraz, and took the cable car. We even found a local happy hour with $1.99 mimosas, $2.99 beers, and $3.99 wines!

After our house-sit, we went back into town for one more night, where we visited Salesforce Park (an elevated mid-city park), and went out for dinner at Fino, where I had THE best gf fettuccine!

We left the next day, renting a car and driving over the Golden Gate bridge into Sausalito, which also has beautiful views back onto San Francisco. Czytaj więcej

Carmel
18 kwietnia 2023, Stany Zjednoczone ⋅ ☀️ 13 °C
Spent the next night in the cutest town called Carmel By The Sea. The houses looked like they were straight out of a fairytale! We went for a wine at the Mission Ranch Restaurant, then went back into town for a wine tasting and dinner.

The following day, on our way out, we drove the "17 Mile Drive" around Pebble Beach (as per local recommendation). It transports you to another world of money with next-level mansions and world-class golf courses! Czytaj więcej

Pismo Beach
17 kwietnia 2023, Stany Zjednoczone ⋅ ⛅ 15 °C
Pismo Beach was the first of two overnight stops on our drive up to San Francisco. It was a LOT colder than Palm Springs but a beautiful spot. We stayed a 5 minute drive out of town at the Best Western but went into town for dinner and to walk the pier and watch the sunset. Czytaj więcej

Coachella
13 kwietnia 2023, Stany Zjednoczone ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C
Bussed into Palm Springs and instantly fell in love! The heat, the landscaping, and the main strip (Palm Canyon Drive) had me sold.

We only had enough time to see downtown Palm Springs because we were there for Coachella!

Day 1 was a big one. Arrived at the festival early to explore the grounds. Highlights were Burna Boy, Blink 182, Gorillaz, Metro Boomin, and Bad Bunny.

Day 2 highlights were Charli XCX and Rosalia! She was the highlight of the weekend.

Day 3 we caught snippets of Christone and the Queens, Bjork, Kali Uchi, and pf course, Frank Ocean! Czytaj więcej

No pics for this quick stop. We came in from LAX and spent the night here. We weren't expecting much, just a place to stay, but just a 10 minute walk into Orange and there was a cute town centre and plenty of eateries. Czytaj więcej

New Orleans
4 kwietnia 2023, Stany Zjednoczone ⋅ ⛅ 30 °C
House sat Darla in New Orleans. She was such a beautiful and well-behaved dog! Besides looking after her and taking her for walks, we did a lot of exploring.

We did a bus tour of the city, including seeing the grand houses of Charles Avenue, learning about Hurricane Katrina, going to a local rum distillery, a cemetry, and Cafe De Monde in the park.

We also took a tour to Oak Alley Plantation, which is a stunning estate. Wish we learned more about those enslaved - the tour felt very focussed on the family that ran the plantation.

On these tours, we learned about the Crescent City Classic - a 10k run, which we decided to register for and do! First time we've ever run 10k and a great way to see more of the city.

We also visited the French Quarter, Frenchman Street jazz clubs, Jamnola art exhibition, went to the annual Easter Parade, and more! Czytaj więcej

The last night of our roady to New Orleans was spent in Pensacola. We drove the coastal route through Navarre and Pensacola Beach and ended up at our Airbnb in downtown Pensacola. We were just a couple blocks from the main strip called Palafox Street, which was very pretty but very empty. Czytaj więcej

Stopped in Rosemary Beach, which was stunning! Felt more like Europe than America, other than the crowds of spring breakers everywhere. It was a very flash place, you even had to have a key card to get down to the beach. Czytaj więcej

Stayed in the cutest little Airbnb cabin for the night. It was a short drive to St George Island, where we went for a beach walk and explored the colourful waterfront houses.
