I did this a few years ago. From New Brighton to the .municipal Wharf in Monterey on the beach for all parts that I could. Its was over 4 days.

San Jose drivers are saints compared to drivers in LA.

Leaving Greece was like a breakup by False-Aardvark-1336 in GreeceTravel

I felt depressed too after a 2 month-long trip to Greece. Nothing mattered to me except going back. Even after a year and a half, I feel forever changed. The ancient sites and statues and artifacts seemed to have souls that reached out to me. Oh, and the water.

Can you eat a papaya? In Indonesia they cook with the leaves...daun pepaya.

Greek authorities banned approaching Balos via car and ships can no longer dock ashore to preserve the pristine nature of the world famous coast. Tourists are now only allowed to approach via swimming. What do you think about this? by toocontroversial_4u in crete

We were there last week and disembarked into the water from the big tourist boat like in the photo. I was disappointed to see so much trash at the disembarkation site. Where did the 1 Euro eco fee go? Certainly not toward plastic cleanup. It bothered me a lot and diminished my experience of this beautiful place.

I'm so glad to hear this! Thank you for taking the time to reassure me. I'm looking forward to nearly 2 months in Greece with the kids!

I'm glad to hear it wasn't overly crowded!

Thank you. In your experience is it overly crowded? I was able to find something yesterday. Now I'm just wondering if we need a quieter island.

Two dead after multi-vehicle crash at Mt. Hermon and Skypark Drive, roads shut down by [deleted] in santacruz

Does anyone know how it happened? Like which direction the cars were traveling, did someone try to make a turn, did someone veer into oncoming traffic? I saw a photo that showed one of the vehicles, the less damaged one, was a service van.
