Carmel and 17 Mile Drive

One of the standard tourist stops near Bay Area is Carmel and the near-by 17 mile drive. The Carmel town is very cute, but I find the 17 mile drive good but a bit overrated. Both offer numerous opportunities for photography.

I found a nice alley in Carmel downtown.
Carmel also has a mission.
The 17 Mile drive takes you via many famous spots. One being the Restless Sea.
 
And other picturesque locations.
Some of the beaches are easily accessible, with interesting habitants.
And
On that particular day, a squirrel and a bird were completely unafraid of the humans. Even without a decent zoom, I managed to take these pictures.

And of course, the drive is not complete without the famous Lone Cypress tree
