Santa Cruz Transplants & Friends

Walk West Cliff

Surfing Monument at West Cliff Drive & Pelton Ave

I'm sure you all already waited for this to show. :-)

LET US WALK!!! :-)

We meet at the Surfer Monument (= at the bronze surfer statue; NOT at the light house) for this nice little walkhikeveryfastpacedstroll to Natural Bridges and back. Our little round trip is about 4 to 4.5 miles long, and it usually takes us about 1.5 hours. We try to walk at a rather brisk, animated pace. We achieve that most of the times. Seriously, we do. No dawdling, no strolling. We're fast (or trying to). :-)

If the pace is too fast for you or you don't want to walk the entire distance - no problem (REALLY!). Take a break on a bench, and we pick you up on our way back. Bring a friend, start out with us and walk at your own pace - we pick you up on the way back, too. :-)

Netflix is stronger than the Great Outdoors? You super-glued yourself to the kitchen counter and cannot get out? Haven't finished knitting that dog sweater yet? Questions? Please call or text me at 408.355.8870. Afraid to call because you don't know how to pronounce my name...? :-) No problem; it sounds like "Mycah".

Parking: Usually, Pelton Ave is an option, but the smaller side streets off West Cliff Drive closer to downtown are also good (e.g. Santa Cruz St, Monterey St, ...).

The Walk West Cliff-RSVP-Policy: Easy as pie...

If you want to come, please RSVP. It makes it so much easier to know for how many people we're waiting...

If you RSVP'ed and see that you cannot make it, please un-RSVP if possible so that we don't wait for you in vain.

If you RSVP'ed and don't show up (and don't get in touch afterwards)... Well, your loss.:-) Sometimes, this just happens. To ALL of us. But if it happens too often, you might end up being blocked.

At first the wind was a bit chilly, but once we were walking, it was great. And we made our best time, yet!

  Yes. With a little help from my friends (and their kids :-) ), I can totally teach potential new friends how to pronounce German names. Isn't it great?! :-)
