We Visit Hearst Castle

Hearst Castle is located near San Simeon, California

A fabulous experience to say the least--everyone should visit at least once.  Be sure to also take in the movie that documents the planning, building and people involved in the development of Hearst Castle.  Lots of famous people over the years.  Mr. Hearst was an iconic "mover and shaker" during his time.  Wasn't able to determine if he was a nice person or not.

You know who taking advantage of some lounge time

John and Ally admiring their new digs

Guess they didn't need DBW funding for PFDs

 Our tour took 45 minutes...we wandered the grounds for several hours...then saw the movie. We could have easily stayed another 2-3 hours.  Next time...
