A Dip in the Bay

Monterey Bay Aquarium

Monterey Bay

Saturday in California

We had a fun time visiting the Monterey Bay Aquarium today. The weather was cool and partly cloudy but when we headed down to Carmel and Pebble Beach, the weather took a nasty turn so we headed back to the house. The fog was rolling in and the streets were damp. Our new plan of action included a stop by a local produce stand where we bought artichokes, jalepeno, strawberries, grapes, cilantro and garlic to go with the steaks and potatoes that we bought for dinner tonight.

Instead of riding, we swam in the heated pool, sat in the hot tub and took a dip in the bay. Well, the girls took a dip in the bay. We were told later that the water was 54 degrees.

Plans for tomorrow - to head to the Big Basin Redwoods State Park along Pacific Coast Highway 1.

Journey to Monterey Bay

Hello, Everyone!
We have traveled down to Monterey Bay after a stop in Napa Valley at one of the wineries and then to San Francisco and the Golden Gate Bridge. The Internet connection is really slow here at the beach (Guess it's on Beach Time!) so I can't upload photos. I'll try again tomorrow.!

Night in Napa

We decided to stay at a this inn in Napa Valley. It was very quaint - almost nostalgic. It only 15 rooms and they were almost like cottages with covered parking.

It's Friday morning and we're headed down to San Francisco this morning and then on to Monterey. I'll try to post some more tonight!
