Santa Cruz feels like home

Santa Cruz, 6286

At six the next morning we packed up and rolled on up the coast to Santa Cruz. We were just planning to get a cup of coffee, but ended up staying there for the entire day. The town is cool. Being the epicenter of surfing in North America there are lots of interesting people around. People in Santa Cruz are really friendly, and seem down to earth in a way I can relate to. After coffee we went to the local tourist trap, aka The Mystery Spot, where the laws of physics cease to apply and gravity is a dubious companion.
The Doubting Thomases that we are, we figured it was an illusion, but left the place not knowing exactly what to make of it. Later on we went out to the shore north of town and walked around on the beach. There, we found lots of fossils and also an object that may be whale puke (Ambergris), but we have not tested it yet.
Tomorrow we will go to San Francisco to tour de Young, the newly opened art museum in SF. Unfortunately SFMOMA will be closed on the day we are in SF.
