We got to Pismo Beach around 1 PM and set up camp at North Beach State Park, fixed some sandwiches for lunch and went off to see the migrating monarch butterflies. Since it was cool, about 60 and misty, the butterflies were not flying, and for the first 10 minutes we walked around the eucalyptus grove and only saw a few butterflies . . . . pretty disappointing. Then we looked closer and found the Monarchs hanging high in the trees in bunched clusters, and when they were not flying, they looked more brown then orange, with their wings closed. These pictures don’t do them justice, but they were fantastic, and once you knew where to look they were EVERYWHERE!!
