Monterey

Monterey is so beautiful...
We drove up the 101 and the valleys were so green because of the recent rainfall. We had a great time driving along the romantic 17-mile drive and enjoyed the MB Aquarium, albeit a bit busy. Most of all, I believe Susan and I enjoyed the food! The drive down was beautiful as well...we coasted down the Pacific Coast Highway (1). The ocean seemed so blue and I enjoyed the notion that perhaps we as a society were making the right ecological choices. I was told later that the water has a tendency to be more blue in the winter when it is more cold....oh well.

Along the drive down we did notice some "driftwood" along the coast which were in fact Elephant Seals! In the spirit of enjoying our drive down we extended our trip by another day and stayed in the sleepy town of San Simeon so that we could visit Hearst Castle (Man...WR Hearst was a rich man!) the next day before completing our trip.

Enjoy the pictures here!
