Dates and Times

Mako finishes a conference in the afternoon/evening of March 2nd. The proposed trip would be for March 3-6.

Sunrise in SLO on March 1st will be at 6:31am. Sunset is ~6:58pm.

The Amtrak Coast Starlight is scheduled to leave SLO at 3:35pm. We'd want to be there early to put bikes into bike boxes, etc. This means if we want to take the train on the same day, it would be 68 miles over ~8 hours of daylight which might be tight.

Proposal 1

This is for a tour w/

  • Day 1: San Francisco→Costanoa Resort (60m)
  • Day 2: Costanao Resort→Monterey (74m)
  • Day 3: Monterey→Big Sur (Treebones Resort/Gorda Springs Resort) (68m)
  • Day 4: Big Sur→San Luis Obispo (68m); Train to Oakland/Seattle

Or this alternate with an extra day for hot springs at the end:

Proposal 2

  • Day 1: Caltrain from SF to San Jose; San Jose→Monterey
  • Day 2: Monterey→Big Sur (Treebones Resort/Gorda Springs Resort)
  • Day 3: Big Sur→San Luis Obispo

Obviously, we can do the same thing with a final day.

Notes

Mika is interested in spending a day in Monterey. One option would be that she leaves early while Mako is at the the conference and meets us there.
