Having lived on Kauai for 7 years, it looks Hawaiian. However I cannot think of anywhere with that view with a P....unless, this is taken from across Hanalei Bay looking back at Princeville... but many many years ago, as the hotel is missing etc.....

Tree, in a way, may suggest the petrified forest.

Haven't a clue, yet, where it is, but will try and find out.

I haven't been there, as far as I can remember.

Close enough. I picked it for the name Point Lobos, which was a state park when I was there. It is located in Pacific Grove, so we have a double winner. Nice job! We ARE looking at Monterey past at the other side of the bay/
