This is not a random Big Sur photo for you to identify, as it is WAY too obvious, but for those of you who have never been here, this sits outside the Big Sur River Inn gas station. Snacks and all sorts of goodies in this magic bus!

And don’t you just love that surfboard chalkboard?

  • We were down the weekend before last taking photos. It was so packed with tourists that we didn't stop & instead headed up to the deli near the post office. I'm not putting down the tourists, but they drive like bats out of hell & also leave trash all over... HOWEVER I am grateful they are here and bringing in business. its a doble edged sword. :P
