To Monterey...and beyond!


Today was filled with the odd shark, some very cute seahorses, some feeding sea otters and the odd penguin. We visited the Monterey Aquarium, which was great - there were a couple of absolutely huge tanks with some fearsome looking beasties swimming around. Also quadrupled my knowledge about sea horses - did you know that it's the males who get pregnant, and give birth to up to 1,000 babies at a go?!

We've driven further up the coast to a tiny place called Davenport, about 70 miles south of San Francisco. The weather has been lovely, blue and sunny and around 70F. There's an amazing beach with hug waves and crashing surf about 100m down a path opposite the hotel. We're still feeling the effects of our ATV experience on the sand dunes - I feel like I've gone 10 rounds with Mike Tyson!
