This morning I woke up and had this wonderful latte waiting for me. Isn't that grand? We had some serious decisions to make while we cooked breakfast. While we're up here we are intent on discovering the Bay. But before any of the travels began we had to decide who would be Lewis and who would be Clark. Can you guess who picked who?
After breakfast we decided to head to Monterey. Josh has been wanting to visit the aquarium there for quite some time so we decided to make a day of it. On the drive we stopped at this roadside stand and bought the most tasty Rainier cherries.
The aquarium was a delight. So many seemingly dainty things that survive in the most harshest places. This quote was put on one of the walls and I thought it was most fitting: "It tunnels into solid rock and bores...it keeps alive the sense of continuing creation and of the relentless drive of life." - Rachel Carson
Afterwards we headed over to the wharf in search of a good meal.
The highest rated place on Yelp, the Old Fisherman's Grotto, offered free clam chowder if you mentioned their name. SCORE!
Monterey, check.
BTW Josh picked Clark. He said Lewis is too pansy. Explorers unite!
