Año Nuevo State Park (Cellphone Photos) - San Mateo County, CA

On the 26th September 2025, my mom and I went to Año Nuevo State Park in San Mateo County, CA for a day trip. We walked along Año Nuevo Point Trail, soaking in the scenery. Afterwards, we dropped by Luigi's Pizza and Pasta in Campbell, CA for dinner. I hope you enjoy viewing my photos!

Message from the Photographer: I have been having more energy recently after a cold a few weeks ago. I think it might be due to one of the pills I was on. I have no clue if this increase in my energy is temporary or permanent. The pill I was taking, Mucinex DM specifically the dextromethorphan, has helped some people's chronic fatigue syndrome.

The main part of Año Nuevo State Park only has one trail, Año Nuevo Point Trail. The scenery is amazing, and there were so many birds to see walking down the trail.

Afterwards, my mom and I dropped by Luigi's Pizza and Pasta in Campbell, CA. The pizza was great. The last time I was here was in 2015, celebrating a friend's birthday. The restaurant is at 2495 Winchester Blvd, Campbell, CA 95008.

San Carlos Beach Sea Lions (Cellphone Photos) - Monterey, CA

On the 7th September 2025, my parents and I went to San Carlos Beach in Monterey, CA to see the beach filled with sea lions. I saw photos of them online before I went. This was the first time I have seen so many sea lions gathered on a beach. I took photos with my cellphone. I hope you enjoy viewing my photos!

Message from the Photographer: My energy from Long COVID was pretty good yesterday, but also part of it is I'm trying to trigger a crash in hopes they can find some problems on the respiratory system tests next week.

A photo of sea lions at San Carlos Beach. Also in the photo are Monterey Bay, Coast Guard Pier (on the right in the distance), Sand City (on the left in the distance), mountains (in the distance).

Funny story about the photo above. I did not actually see this sea lion napping in the shadow of the fence until its head popped up over the fence. It gave me quite a nasty shock. 😂

My mom helped take a photo of me and the sea lions on San Carlos Beach. Also in the photo are Monterey Bay, Coast Guard Pier (on the right in the distance), Sand City (on the right in the distance), mountains (in the distance).

A funny story from the stairs at San Carlos Beach. Two 10 year old girls were standing next to me, and I overheard this conversation.

    "I think that sea lion there is a boy."

    "How do you know?"

    "Look at the pink thing."

    "What pink thing... Oh..."

Anyways, I also took a look. It turns out the long, straight thingy on male sea lions are pink. 😂
