Finally Hearst Castle!

And then we drove up North to visit the magical Hearst Castle - that I was dreaming of since I found out that the Citizen Kane's home actually existed. Maybe not the real Kane's house but since Kane's life was based on the one of Hearst, this Enchanted Hill Ranch was an inspiration for the movie's Xanadu. 
An amazing place. Hearst actually bought real European antics and art and built a pastiche of many architectural styles. 
But I was mainly excited imagining that this is the house of Kane - the hero of the best movie of all times.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 And the backstage from visiting the Castle for more than 1 hour.... Challenging.
