We drove from Bakersfield up through wine country, where we saw endless plantations of almond trees and large and small vinyards, and crossed the mountains into the green side of California. The sight of the Pacific was amazing. I'd never been here, and had only seen the Pacific in Alaska, and this is so different. so blue and overwhelming. very different from the Atlantic, which I find more cold and ? formal?? We couldn't score a camping spot, Memorial Day holiday seems to have started early, and we didn't want to be tied down to any set time/place, so didn't reserve anything, so we're in a motel in Monterey tonight. We went to the Aquarium on Cannery row this afternoon and then ate seafood on Fisherman's Wharf. Yum!
