Hearst Castle at Christmas


Just Magical...
Last night was such a wonderful evening...first being at Hearst Castle for a special docent tour and party, the whole being there at night and The Castle being decorated for Christmas was such a special treat! I kept wondering who had stood right where I was...Clark Gable, Calvin Coolidge, Winston Churchill, Charlie Chaplin, Clark Gable, Cary Grant, George Bernard Shaw, and Amelia Earhart, Mr. Hearst himself???






Dining Room

By the time we left, it was getting spooky foggy!!!
This tree had a hole in the center of it and was still thriving...is there a metaphor in there???

We also toured the kitchen - that's one part of the castle I'd never seen so it was a special treat.
Everything was just beautiful! I get to go back in a couple of weeks for a 2 hour tour with a group of friends.
Enjoy your holidays...
Joan
