Definitely brings back memories, listening to the bugler playing Reveille this morning at 0700 hours. Only difference was, back in the day, Reveille was played at 0600 hours. Must be that we're on California time! It was a great way to start our day.
After breakfast, we drove over to the famous 17 Mile Drive skirting Pebble Beach Golf Course on our way to Carmel. If I were to pick one city in California to live in, it would definitely be Carmel!
We strolled around this charming town until it was lunch time. We had already decided to have lunch at Clint Eastwood's Hog's Breath Inn, since it was a recommended place.
So, we enjoyed Dirty Harry burgers, which were "lick your plate delicious" and fries. My wanna-be Harry justified our lunch claiming that we certainly had walked off plenty of calories during our 40 mile walk this morning!
We drove back to Monterey to visit their aquarium, which was delightful! I especially enjoyed the "wave" experience where you stood underneath a plexi-glass bubble while a huge wave crashed overhead. I kept thinking how much David and Lily would love that!
The exhibits were fabulous. We even found Dori and Nemo playing!
Again, Rob claimed that we walked another 40 miles! Once back on the Presidio, we decided to visit the Post Exchange. Back in the room, it was nap time for Rob and laundry time for me. Tonight we opted to skip dinner, trust me, we could afford to skip a meal. So, we're snacking on fruit, coffee, and protein bars. Time to repack our suitcases for tomorrow!
