Hearst Castle

The following morning, I dragged myself out of bed at about nine for breakfast, and decided against the pool as I may drown (and enjoy it as a preferable alternative) and I drove us to Hearst castle. It is very impressive, he was a newspaper magnate and was worth an absolute fortune... 

We took a tour of his house and outbuildings; he has three swimming pools for varying size. He collected antiques, but didn't really have a focus or preference for period, so the place is a weird mixture of styles and nations.....
