from where we were staying. the road was windy and full of hairpin turns (and car sickness) but the beach was well worth it in the end. there was no one on the whole beach but us and it was so calm and relaxing. i\u2019m usually not the biggest fan of the beach but this beach filled every requirement on the \u2018perfect beach checklist\u2019: no people, overcast, pebbles instead of sand, good water temperature and beautiful scenery. not your typical beach stipulations, huh? the only downside was my friend jarryd getting a concussion after jumping off a nearby bridge (you can see the start of his flip if you look really close in the second pic). he was ok but his asking \u2018where are we?\u2019 and \u2018what just happened?\u2019 every five minutes really gave us all a fright. no more bridge jumping for us.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/photobucket.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\" photo HSO_6525.jpg\" border=\"0\"
