The Monterey Bay Aquarium! WOW!

Last week we showed you our exploration of Big Sur, Monterey and Pinnacles National Park; but we kept one or our adventures for a video of it’s own…Monterey Bay Aquarium.  Monterey Bay itself is protected water from Santa Cruz to Big Sur and the Aquarium has captured the essence of this very special place. There is an actual Kelp Forest, Sea Otters, Penguins and so many other wonderful exhibits. Our favorites were “The Jellies”! The jellyfish are mesmerizing and so delicate.  We spent the day at the aquarium and thoroughly enjoyed every minute!  ENJOY THE VIDEO! Travel Update:  We are…

Four Days in the Malibu Beach Area!

After San Diego we headed North to Malibu Beach. We read about an RV park that overlooked the Pacific and made reservations months ago. Our site was right on a bluff that had sweeping views of the ocean…we could hear the pounding surf all day and night!  Our first adventure was the Ciscos Whale Watch…we left from Oxnard…we had the potential to see humpback whales and migrating gray whales…we saw two water spouts far in the distance but did not see the actual whales. 🙁 I am not going to give away the spectacular gift we saw on our cruise…you…
