Monterey, CA

I had a conference in Monterey this week and EW came out Thursday afternoon to travel around Central CA coastal area for the weekend. We drove from Monterey to Big Sur via the 17-mile drive through Pebble Beach. We had a small appetizer in Big Sur and then drove back to Carmel where we walked around the quaint, charming town. It was unseasonably warm in Carmel today. We had dinner at a very popular local restuarant and ate entirely too much but man it was good!

Here are some pics from our lunch yesterday in Monterey. EW had crab legs and thus the "bib". He He.
EW lunch...EFast lunch... (3 different types of fish. yum. yum. yum.)

Oh, so cute...Here are some pics from the drive to/fro Big Sur. This is one of the most filmed coastal drives in all of movie industry. I can see why!



I had to stop and take some pictures of the California vegetation. There is just something great about California. The air, the smells, the perfect weather. Ahhhhh...

Cool beans. Wish it was nice weather like that here in Idaho all the time =/ unfortunately, lately it has been very windy and pretty cold.

Your bottom pic of the ocean is one of the scenes in Soarin' Over California at California Adventure. Very beautiful! I do love visiting CA. I wish we could live there, but it is just too expensive and they are a little weird in how they run the state.
