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 visiting three national parks Sequoia, Kings Canyon and Yosemite!  After these magnificent parks we will be making our way to the Alabama Hills, Valley of Fire, St. George, UT and Lake Powell.  Stand by for several months of adventure!

    Spectacular! The jellies were mesmerizing. Carol
    did you think they sure look prettier here than in the surf at Emerald Isle? You did a great job of capturing this aquarium. Want to go back now especially to see the Puffins.

      They really were mesmerizing! Hard to believe such a beautiful thing could leave such an ugly scar on my wrist! I thought the penguin was funny too. Thanks for your kind words.
