Weekend with Lauren

We met Lauren in the Phoenix airport this morning, and flew to Monterey, California, to spend the weekend in Carmel/Monterey Peninsula.  We landed just after noon and went for lunch in Monterey, on Cannery Row, then walked down the street to the Monterey Aquarium. We spent over two hours enjoying the sea life exhibits.  
We drove along the coastline of Pacific Grove, with a couple of stops to explore and take photos.  We arrived at our hotel in Carmel Highlands, just after 5 p.m.  We went to the dining deck for late afternoon wine and cheese.  Lauren and I saw a green flash, just as the sun was setting at 5:50.  A first for Lauren!  We watched the movie, Hidden Figures, and relaxed in the evening.  We had a great day!
