Sunset in Monterrey
We flew into San Francisco and drove about 2 hours down the coast to Monterrey. John was determined to make the sunset. After speeding on hairpin curves this is what was left when we arrived. It was a very memorable adventure. We are still laughing! After watching the sun go down, we checked into our room and went out for dinner on Cannery Row. Monterrey is such neat place!
The next morning/day we went sightseeing! We started in Monterrey, watching the sea lions. We were in a little park with gorgeous views. We then decided to got to the Monterrey Aquarium. Which is kinda out of character for our travels, but everyone told us to go. It was great! We watched the otters for about a hour. Next, we headed uptown to have lunch at a local joint that was tasty-Rosins. After a quick lunch we drove through the gates of the 17-mile drive to Carmel. It is a beautiful scenic drive ending at Pebble Beach/Carmel. We would drive a couple of miles,pull off , drive a couple more and pull off, the views were breath taking. We finally made it to Pebble Beach. What a gorgeous golf course. It's beautiful, but it didn't knock my socks off. I'm not much of a golfer. Our last and final destination was a little Bed and Breakfast in the middle of Carmel. It was so quaint, and a first for us. What a wonderful, cozy place to stay. We were about 6 blocks from the beach. Carmel is so unique, it has the comfort of a southern town with local charm. No junky commercial signs, all quaint shops with flower boxes in the windows. That evening we got all bundled up and walked down to the beach to watch the sunset. Carmel is very cool at night. As we walked back up the hill to our B&B we could smell the wood burning fireplaces. As dinner approached the decision was easy-Italian, a personal favorite for us. After dinner we were ready to crash!
Another day, John wasn't feeling so well. We were both really congested, I think it was the climate change. Anyway, I went to the little office of the B&B and picked up some breakfast and delivered it to John. He was very thankful! After debating urgent care, John decided to tough it out. We drove down to Big Sur took lots of great pics and headed back toward San Francisco. After arriving in San Fran we checked in our room and went down to the wharf, followed by dinner at a favorite restaurant Taddich Grill. We had a wonderful vacation and great second wedding anniversary.
