River Inn

In Big Sur, there is a place called the River Inn, which has an inn, a cafe, several shops, a pub, and things like that. It also has the cheapest food we found in Big Sur - a vegetarian burrito for $6 (although I had guacamole in mine, for an extra $1.25, and jalapenos, for an extra 50c, but given that a sandwich anywhere else was $12, it was still cheap).




Anyway, the interesting thing about the River Inn is that they place chairs in the river, so that you can cool your feet whilst eating your (cheap) burrito.

Despite the fact that it was a river, it had pond skaters (or something like that) in it. They had to spend a lot of time skating upstream, and then they would be washed downstream again.

Here are a couple of them, ermmm, cuddling.
