An American Castle

San Simeon, CA

Yes, this is the outdoor swimming pool in Hearst Castle, the Neptune pool... Looks really lavish right? It's interesting that the lady of the house (before it was turned into a museum) was not William Randolph Hearst's wife, but his mistress Marion Davies (Okay, don't quote me on that, that's what I remember from what the tour guide said... hehehe!) There's tons of art scattered all over the place like statues from Egypt, and other places. The place even has an indoor pool with gold embedded in the tiles! Talk about lavish huh?
