17-Mile Drive

We visited 17-Mile Drive last Saturday.This was the first time I saw the BLUE Pacific Ocean. (I've been to the Golden Gate Bridge twice, Highway 101 along the Pacific Ocean once.All on cloudy days or rainy days.)It was really blue in color under the reflection of sunshine.The 17-Mile Drive is quite a large park,actually it's an enclosed pebble beach resort operated by a company .It's along the Pacific coast with many wild species in it, seabirds, squirrels, cypress, seals and sea lions.I saw a deer. Can u imagine? Anyway, Li scared it away, so I was not lucky enough to be with it in a picture.There are more than fifty privately owned mansions located in the park. Lots of golf facilities.O god, how much I envied those who can enjoy the beautiful scenery and leisure sports everyday! So I'm motivated to get back to work again!
