Hearst Castle

For our 6th Anniversary this year we took a 3 day vacation and visited Hearst Castle in San Simeon. Here are the pictures I took on our tour. It was pretty foggy as you might see in some of the pictures. With all the pictures I took you can really tell what I liked. I really enjoyed the beautiful Madonna and child paintings along with others. The first painting is my favorite. Sorry the shot was blurry. But the colors where so rich and vibrant. Loved it. The ceilings are amazing with all the detail wood work from old buildings and churches. I also love the pools, but who doesn't. Besides the beautiful pools, which by the way the indoor pool was drained for the first time since... I don't know when, but it was cool to see just how deep the pool actually is. Okay, so besides the pools I couldn't get enough pictures of the beautiful life size statues. (If you can't tell.) Our tour we got to see some on our walk but the ones that I took pictures of, are pretty much the ones we saw. Also on the way up to Hearst Castle that morning we were lucky enough to spot a Mama whale with her baby, swimming close to the shore. I get pretty excited about that kind of stuff. It was one of the biggest highlights of the trip for me. We didn't stop to take pictures since we had to be there in time for our tour. We probably should have.
