Touring Through The Legendary Hearst Castle | @HearstCastle #WilleyMobileAdventures #RoadTrip2014

One of the sights that was a MUST for us to tour while on our two week long road trip was see the Legendary Hearst Castle in San Simeon.

Hearst CastleSponsored EVENT

One of California’s State Parks, this beautiful castle is set upon a hill top overlooking the Pacific Ocean.  In 1919, William Randolph Hearst, a newspaper publisher, decided to build his dream home on the land he loved to play on as a child.  He hired Julia Morgan to build him a “Ranch at San Simeon” which took approximately 28 years to build. This beautiful estate contains a vast collection of fine art and antiques that are on display.

A Tour Back In Time with Alcatraz Cruises | @AlcatrazCruises #WilleyMobileAdventures #RoadTrip2014

When planning our 2014 Road Trip, the hubster stated that Alcatraz is a must! A huge fan of The Rock and other films about Alcatraz, its a good thing we decided to plan early! Upon my internet search, one of the few companies that offers tours of Alcatraz is Alcatraz Cruises.

Our friends at Alcatraz Cruises made it possible for us to travel on the date we had selected. TIP: be sure to book early!  At Alcatraz Cruises you are able to select a specific date and boarding time, and I highly recommend doing this, because for the summer, they sell out fast!

The Lakeside Community of Coeur d’Alene, Idaho | #WilleyMobileAdventures #RoadTrip2014

When planning this 2 week long road trip, in talking with a few friends, a couple recommended stopping in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho if we got the chance.  They said it was a beautiful little lake town that we really didn’t want to miss.

So after our detour out of Yellowstone National Park, we headed to Coeur d’Alene, and I fell in love.

While preparing for our 2014 road trip, I had decided to make larger portions of food so that I could intentionally freeze leftovers.  By the time we packed up the Willey Mobile for our 2 week trip, we had several meals already set, but I was looking for other options for quick, convenient and tasty meals the family would love.  Thanks to our friends at Sous Kitchen, we had the final pre-packaged meals ready to go.

Touring Salt Lake City and Temple Square | #WilleyMobileAdventures #RoadTrip2014

The next stop on our 2 week road trip took us to Salt Lake City.  We really didn’t know what we wanted to see in Salt Lake, but as everyone says, see the Great Salt Lake.

Salt Lake City KOA

While we headed into town, we decided to check into our campground.  Have I told you we love staying at KOA? The Salt Lake City KOA was beautiful and had all the amenities we were looking for on our one night stop.
