I talked to steak on the phone a few days ago and he suggested I take a trip all by myself to show to myself that I can do it and that I can be independent. So, I decided that it wouldn't hurt and planned a trip to Monterey. I've always wanted to go to the Aquarium. Yesterday I left the house at 10AM and set out for the bay. I decided to stop at any place I thought that may be interesting. I wasn't in a hurry at all.
As I was driving through Pacheco Pass, I saw a sign that referred to Dinosaur Point and I had to check it out. I turned off 152 and drove down a ways towards the San Luis Resevoir and there was a lookout point. I pulled over and took a picture of me there with the resevoir as the background. It was so pretty that day. If you want to check out the pics, I posted them on my yahoo photo's page. There's a link to it at the top of this page.
Anyway, I didn't drive to far in because I didn't want to get lost. However, when I drove towards the entrance, there was another entrance that led to Pacheco State Park. I didn't go in there. So, after taking pics of myself, I left and got back onto the HWY. As I was driving to Monterey, I saw a sign that said Mission San Juan Bautista. I didn't know it was on the way, so I stopped by and checked it out. After that, I finally made it to Monterey.
I checked out the wharf, cannery row and finally the aquarium. The aquarium was magnificent. If you have the chance to go, definitely do it. I loved it! I ended up buying Shane a penguin keychain and I bought myself a pair of kitty socks, oh and a prayer card from the mission. I didn't go crazy on the shopping. I was planning on staying the night and checking out more of HWY 1, but I went home instead. I got home around 9:15 and crashed at 10PM! I didn't wake up until Noon today! I was soo tired and I didn't expect to be.
Next trip: Pismo Beach
