Elephants Seals Near Hearst Castle
Nearby Hearst Castle, there's a beach. You can't swim on it, though. Not unless you weigh 2 or more tons and you are a pinniped, at least. The whole beach is reserved for elephant seals! If you are ever out near Hearst Castle, you definitely want to check it out! Here are a bunch of really super cool photos that my mother took of them!
The Zebras of Hearst Castle
William Randolph Hearst was a man who, long story short, had a ton of money. Tours of his house near San Luis Obispo in California are simply fantastic, but it makes your own home feel enormously small. Unless of course, you have a mansion, in which case you're probably all right!
Anyways, Hearst even had a zoo on his grounds! Most of the animals that he used to have there are dead or have been given to other zoos, but some remain, like a small group of zebras! Here are some pictures that I took of them. Unfortunately they were really far away, but you can still tell what they are!
