Monterey, well nothing much to say about this town, it's located not too far from San Jose. After breakfast we drove our rental car from our friend's place in San Jose, takes about 45 minutes, time depends on the traffic. Do avoid rush hour time, but one thing i like about California is that they have carpool lane. There is a very famous Monterey Aquarium, wanted to go at 1st but it's just too crazy expensive, My jaw dropped when i saw the price to the aquarium. Cost about $39.95/ adult and $24.95/ kids. Imagine a trip for 2 adult and 2 kids cost about $130 that doesn't even include meals. Since we have visited few aquarium before so it was an easy decision choice to skip it. The Aquarium at Monaco was FREE and it was amazing too.
we then walked around the town and the beach
there are few cute boutique but that;s about it
some mural art
i think we walked around for less then an hour....wasted our parking money as we pay for 2 hours...but there was nothing much to see
then we drove south to Carmel, i read alot of this place in my novel. I long to see the cute little shops,
some of the shops really were unique and adorable. It's also a really nice place to do some shopping
we also had a nice lunch in a Greek restaurant, price was affordable
These is also a nice beach to walk but too bad weather was abit too windy and cold.
infos about the Carmel Beach
Next we headed south again to Big Sur (Next Post)
