Today we flew into Monterey, California. We're excited to spend 3 days with M, Rod, & our nieces, Rose & Marie! Bob's folks are driving down from Los Altos Hills to stay a night & have a day at M & Rod's beach house too!
Looking down into the bay of Monterey. The point is where 17 mile drive and Pebble Beach golf course begin. Rod spent some time there last week for the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am golf tourney. The girls got to go a day to the tourney too.
Soon after arriving we took a walk from their house to a nearby park & got right to climbing! Marie & Rose are amazing climbers; jungle gyms, monkey bars, rock walls, tall trees…they can climb it! We had fun racing around their obstacle course!
Next stop was Monterey's Dennis the Menace Park. Great park for kids (& grown ups too apparently). :-) Bob, Pat, Bobby, M, Marie, & Rose.
The professional rock climbers master the wall.
And proof that they are tree climbing champs!!!! Can you see Marie @ the tippy top (Rose had just been up there too). Wow! Click on the photo to enlarge. :-) PS: Bob is in that tree too (an ex-10 year old tree climbing champion himself)!
Tonight we ate at The Fish Hopper (a local favorite) & topped off the night with Ghirardelli ice cream sundaes (and maybe a few Nanimo Bars too (a family favorite made by Pat). Mmmm!
A wonderful get away to visit your family...what could be better??? Nothing!
