Basking in the afterglow of the GP races, we awoke Monday morning to an emptier house. Sleeper and family had to take Dylan to the airport and left early. Russ, Kate, Mike, and Pam had to catch a 12:30 flight out of San Jose and were getting ready to head out. Gina and I had a red-eye out of San Francisco. So we had tons of time to kill. I planned it that way.
We decided to head into Monterey for breakfast. On a local store owner's recommendation we ate at a killer little restaurant called "great awakenings" or "beginings" or something like that. It's located in a little outlet mall just past the Aquarium. Good food.
After that we decided to check out 17 mile drive. Yea, it's touristy. But we had a convertible and we're tourists. Gotta do it at least once. The afternoon turned out to be great. We never had the chance to do it, but Chop had suggested we go down to the Pebble Beach Lodge for cocktails one night. So we decided to do it this afternoon. GREAT recommendation Chop! We had a fantastic afternoon at Pebble Beach.
