Right, and not in SF just like Palo Alto isn't.

just to be clear maybe no daily mincha/marriv in SF but there are multiple options for daily scharis in SF

Trader Joe's has kosher meat and chicken at most stores in CA, as well as a large kosher selection (not section, just general food, but no grape juice).

My wife and I are planning a SFO > Yosemite > LA trip in January (from Israel).

After we arrive early Sunday AM in SFO, we need to stop in Palo Alto to pick up some things, then we'll drive to Yosemite for 3 nights. Tentatively, planning to stay at the Tenaya in Fish Camp.

We need to be in LA for Shabbos, and were thinking of driving some of the PCH to get there. We have from Wednesday AM until Friday.

We were going to stay here https://www.ticklepinkinn.com/ in Carmel for Wed and Thu, but the drive to LA on a short Friday seems too much to really enjoy anything.

Any suggestions where to spend the few nights, and which route to drive? Interested in nature, trees, waterfalls, etc. Not Hearst Castle. We are considering the Jelly Belly factory, too

. We don't have Hyatt points, and we're looking for nice places to stay.

Also, we've been to Tierra before..no need to go back there.

Thanks!

chevron · « **Reply #352 on:** October 03, 2019, 01:40:42 AM »

I mean it's doable but go from Yosemite straight to PCH that's 3.5 hours.

What points do you have?

Aryehs · « **Reply #353 on:** October 03, 2019, 02:47:48 AM »

I have CUR points, plus 60K Capitol One.

I don't need to use points on this one; just looking for nice places to stay and what to see.

Yosemite to PCH would be much out of the way.
Maybe a stop in sequoia makes more sense

looking for nice ocean view hotel in the area within driving a distance of a minyan

anybody have a experience or recommendation?

davidd75 · « **Reply #356 on:** November 26, 2019, 05:49:55 PM »

at what point do you think one has seen enough of scenic drive and can get off the PCH and get back to the 101 to save time to LA area

You can, but that's a far drive

Between Monterrey and Santa Barbara there aren't really any places to conveniently transfer between the 1 and the 101. Just get on the 101 once you've gotten to Santa Barbara and take it back to LA. The nicest parts of PCH are between Monterrey and Santa Barbara anyway.
