Goldmoney t shirt tour goes to Hearst Castle in California

in #travel7 years ago

There is almost nothing I enjoy more than flying my Goldmoney gear and traveling to different historical and interesting locations. I call this the Goldmoney t shirt tour.

The Goldmoney t shirt tour allows me to expose as many people as possible to Goldmoney. I often get stopped and asked about Goldmoney, and I am so happy to oblige!

Hearst Castle is a National Historic Landmark located in California (The Golden State). It was a residence for William Randoph Hearst, a wealthy newspaper magnate.

Here is me getting ready for the drive to Hearst Castle:

Here is the Goldmoney gold card, which is also part of the tour! Thats right, you can use this card to buy Starbucks!

The day of my visit was foggy which only added to the mystique of the castle. As we wound up the long road through the acerage that the castle sits on, it was easy to imagine the rich and famous celebrities of the 20's and 30's that visited this enchanting place. Hearst Castle WAS the spot for parties, for Hollywood celebrities, politicians, and pretty much anyone who was famous at the time.

Some of the castles guest include Cary Grant, James Stewart, Winston Churchill and Franklin Roosevelt.

At the castle, one of the coolest things we saw was the Celestial suite, which is a tower that rises high in the sky, and hasnt been made public until very recently. Very few visitors have been able to see this since the Castle was operation as a residence.

Here is a shot of the interior, where guests such as Walt Disney have stayed! Being so high in the castle and looking out upon the world creates a very atmospheric and mystical feeling. The whole room has a golden glow, so I felt right at home in my Goldmoney shirt.

Another of my favorite rooms was the library. Imagining the history of this room, with some of the most famous people in the world having intimate and intelligent conversations was thrilling! The wisdom in the volumes of books here must be immense.

My absolute favorite room though, was the indoor Roman Pool. With statues of roman Gods and Goddesses, and the stunning blue and gold colors, this is a truly special place. With 24k gold leaf everywhere, I was in awe:)

I highly reccomend visiting Heart Castle. For the history, the magic, the feeling as you explore this enchanting place.

....but if you want to look cool while doing it, and promote sound and real money, you must come in your Goldmoney shirt :)

The real value is not the numbers on the card, but what the card is made of:) #gold

Amazing castle ! I would love to visit this place one day :) thanks for sharing such awesome location.

I hope you see it! Thanks for reading

Hearst Castle is indeed very beautiful

It's really quite amazing. Unlike anything ive seen!

The inside of that place looks like royalty. Great post! and Great Shirt!

It is for sure! So far this is my favorite compliment! You noticed the shirt! :)

Aww thanks, what can I say a cool shirt deserves to get noticed :P

You can get one too through a Goldmoney account, and buy it with gold!

@goldmatters #you really doing a great work..more grease to your elbow.. go #Gold , go #matters

Thank you for saying that! :)

What Starbucks are you at there? @luvbnamome and I both work at Starbucks and we usually grab teas on our journeys to the central coast. Midnight mint mocha?

Yes midnight mocha! To be honest I can't remember which Starbucks that was lol! Somewhere on the way :) We stayed in Solvang ( I need to do a seperate blog about that!) so it may have been around there. Thank for reading my blog! Do you get many customers paying in gold?

That's a little longer drive from Solvang. No customers paying in gold, but I did three of the gold $1 coins last week

Keep your eye on coinage that comes in, quarters dimes etc, if they are pre 1965 they are 90% silver!

Lol. I'm a silver collector. I've found more than a few

Fanatastic!

Gorgeous photos! The mist gives it a mysterious beauty.
Also, Goldmoney rocks!

Yeah it sure does!!!

I really like the name "Goldmoney t shirt tour". The pictures of these historical places looks like almost movie scene. Impressive capture, thanks for sharing.

Thank you! I have SO many picture of the tour!

Holy mother of pearl that pool room is amazing! U get around man, new shirt this time haha Big ol' upvote for ya

Thanks for checking it out:)

I’m a proud card-holding customer of GoldMoney and I love your service! Keep up your great work!

Or, and if I may ask a ‘customer support question’: do the Personal Account holders need to apply for the new Holdings Account or can we keep our old Personal Accounts for the time being?

Awesome! Do you have a shirt??? .... It is not mandatory to open a Holding at this time. You may continue using your Personal account for the time being :)

I do not have a shirt, but I would very much love to have one. :)) I got four co-workers at work signed up for GoldMoney, they all are loving it!

The biggest PRO of the new Holding account for me personally is the fact that I can now buy other metals, not just gold. The biggest CONTRA is that I would have to pay a storage fee (storage is free of charge in Personal). So I’m torn…

Great job on sharing Goldmoney with your co workers! Now they will be able to save their purchasing power over time. :) .... yes, many people have been wanting to hold other precious metals, like silver in their accounts. Platinum and palladium also available

Great pictures. That starbucks drink looked good. I am amazed that a pool in the Castle is maintained. It looks beautiful.

Midnight mocha!! You have to see the pool someday:)

I feel lie the foggy weather just made it a better time to go to a castle and you could fell just weird vibes since you cant see out the windows that far. Thanks for taking us along!

I really love the name of this tour ,
And i do hope i can visit there, one day!! with the same t shirt.
Thank you @goldmatters

You can order a Goldmoney t shirt too if you have an account:)

Okay @goldmatters
I will order the t shirt soon

Cant wait to see the picture!

Majestic place here!!!
Swimming pool is super dope, thanks for this interesting share .

Keep it up!!!

So true, thanks for reading!

Awesome photo's, love the pool room, The photo's with the fog rolling in, makes them look really Gothic. Cheers

Thanks for reading silverbug! That's exactly how it felt

Hope you are enjoying your pretty good looking tour 😀

I always do : ) thanks for reading

That place looks amazing! I'm sure it has a rich history! It's hard to imagine the amount of work and detail that went into building that Roman pool. Thanks for the great shots! @goldmatters

I agree, it's pretty incredible :)

The swimming pool is just amazing, I would feel like a sultan in it

Its so awesome! Believe it or not this is just one of two pools at the castle!
