A Drive across California, to Pinnacles National Monument and

Mission San Juan Bautista, May 11, 2011

Our last day, so we head west across the San Juaquin Valley and into the Coast Range, to Pinnacles National Monument.
On a whim we detour to Mission San Juan Bautista, and arrive just before it closes.
