My wife, Marcelle, and I are planning a West coast road trip, starting out in Vancouver, BC, catching up with the coast at Astoria, OR, and then down to SF and slightly beyond to Morro Bay, CA. We will then head east to Yosemite for a few days and then wend our way back to SF and then back up the coast homeward. This all came together fairly quickly as we both had a window of opportunity to get away.
I'd love to hear from you as to the must-see sights along our path. When we lived in Seattle, we got as far south as just below Newport, OR. Marcelle has been to SF before (not me), and we've both seen Monterey and a bit of the surrounding area... the rest is all new.
I am taking my new D300 kit of two bodies, the 12-24mm, the 19-200mm, the 70-300mm and the nifty-50 (1.8). We've got 26 days, so it's going to be a real good initiation for the Nikon gear, as well as an incredible adventure for the two of us!
As far as recommendations, be aware we're a couple of old buggers and not interested in hikes that are too strenuous or too long. Also, any hints for neat places to stay and eat would be welcome as long as they're reasonable. We plan to head out next Wednesday.
Cheers,
