For over 35 years I have wanted to see Hearst Castle near San Simeon, Ca. And it was worth the wait. Built by William Randolph Hearst starting in 1919 and continuing for almost 3 decades, the main house, pools, guest houses and grounds are magnificent and truly an American 'Castle'.
The outdoor, or Neptune pool, is truly worthy of the mythical god for which it is named. In it's third incarnation the pool and surroundings are 'out of this world'!
Opulance and Splendor Galore
And the indoor pool, the Roman pool, is no slouch either. It is covered with Venetian blue glass and gold tiles. Carefully watched over by sculptures of glorious days gone by. Simply splendid!
Be bold and courageous. When you look back on your life, you'll regret the things you didn't do more than the ones you did.
So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails.
Explore. Dream. Discover.
Mark Twain, of course.
