Rocky Coast, North Pole, Deep Sea



All in one weekend we went to hit the rocks in Monterey, took a train to the North Pole, and dove under water to visit the fish. For years we have made a point to visit Monterey atleast twice a year. We usually go after the holidays, but last year we found Holiday Lights at Bonfante Gardens in Gilroy and now we are making it a tradition to go much earlier than usual. So we packed up and headed out early Saturday morning. We arrived in time to climb the rocks on the coast, but the tide was so high that we couldn't go out as far as we are used to. The city was so crowded we couldn't find parking so we changed our plans to go to the Aquarium and went to the wharf for chowder bowls. Yum! After checking into our hotel in Gilroy, we bundled up and headed for Gilroy Gardens. One of the highlights of the night was writing a letter to Santa. Other highlights included a train ride, driving the cars, lots of rides, hot chocolate, and getting to wear our hats and gloves! Sunday we went to our favorite place...the Aquarium. Mason's favorite thing was the sharks and Jaxon loved it all! Of course, my favorite remains the Jellyfish. Very cool!
