We is definitely having some format probs., but we sure as heck had a wonnerful time on our camping trip to Monterey and Carmel! Dadzers had a mini-vacay for a few days, and we decided to take the camper south to San Juan Bautista, which is furry near Carmel and Monterey. Below is a pitchur of Cannery Row, made famous by Mr. John Steinbeck, who wrote about peoples when Monterey was known for its sardine canneries.
There is a wonnerful path for peoples, doggehs and cyclists called the Rail Trail that winds around the bay for about a thousand miles LOL!
Here we are, admiring a sculpture of Ed Ricketts, a marine biologist, ecologist and writer who collaborated with Steinbeck on The Log from the Sea of Cortez. Sadly, he died in a terrible accident in 1951 -way too young. This bust is located where his car collided with a train. 
And here we are being chased by seals... scary. 
Owwwwwwwwwwww - Sammie! And here is a photoshow of our adventures on a BOAT, where we check out the sea life in Monterey Bay which includes whales - woo hoo! Please biggify both the photoshow and the movie!

Our hu-dad is sighing because that area is one of his favorites to visit. His dad used to be based at Fort Ord many, many moons ago.
You two have the best adventures and weather of anyone! I'm in total envy here. Enjoy some of that beauty for me!

That looks like a great road trip !
HOLY DOG! That is SO wayyy cool!!! What an awesome roadtrip. Were those seals friendly? Love the pictures! Can't wait for Part 2.
Swimming with the seals?! That's amazing! We need to take Cabana down there. I've heard it's super dog friendly.
OMD, what a fantastic adventure you had!!! Did you get to play with those water dogs? We love going on your wonderful trips virtually. We so wish we could do the same things. Can't wait to see where you go next!

Woof! Woof! Another road trip. My parents LOVE this place ... my mom's favorite. There's a cute doggy shop there (hope you get to visit it). Soon my parents said they will take me on a road trip to California. Lots of Golden Woofs, Sugar
Mom just LOVED your pix and vids!!! She and Dad lived in Monterey for 6 months right when they were first married! (That was a million years ago; I think they had dinosaurs instead of sea otters..) She said your post brought back lots of great memories. I like that pic of you girls being chased by the seals! Wooo!
Luv,
Dave
What an exciting trip! That is kinda scary that seals were chasing you!
Love ya lots

Well, I will be in Monterey and vicinity mid-May. Your photos and videos made me even more excited to hit the road! I like to bike on that path that runs from Monterey through Pacific Grove and on to 17 Mile Drive. You sure saw a lot of sea life!
