Dan and I and the other Smith-relations have been living the dream this week in cool, beautiful Pacific Grove, California. To give you a little context: Pacific Grove = Carmel by the Sea = Monterey Peninsula and Cannery Row = Pebble Beach Golf.
The weather is steadily in the upper 50s and 60s. We got in late Sunday night and had some take-out Chinese food. Monday was orientation - we slept in, ate some yummy Mediterranean lunch in Carmel (I had Duck ravioli with feta) and walked around a little bit followed by a delicious lasagna dinner cooked by Sarah and Ellen. Tuesday was spent at the Monterey Bay Aquarium followed by asian grilled chicken Dan and I made for supper. Today we are getting ready to head out to Big Sur to do some hiking and see some awesome coastal views.
My cord is hiding, so I no telephoto pics for the blog yet. Here are some from Dan and Dotty's camera though.
