We found a pretty open area and decided to take walk along the water and just feel the ocean air.
The sand was warm but the water was cold!
At this particular beach there were signs posted that it was a dangerous beach and that it has been known to have large waves and unpredictable rip tides and to enter water at one's own risk. Guess it was a good thing we hadn't planned on going swimming isn't it?
Should I go in the water? Nah, think I'll stay dry, and warm!
It was so pretty in this area. On the beach were a few families building sand castles and flying kites. It was fun just watching them have a good time!
You gotta' write in the sand when you're at the beach!
Well, we aren't that original but, the T + D = love was kind of the theme of our writing in the sand. :)
Can you see the waves? They could get kind of large.
This is a little more original, our name! Well, I wrote it in the sand and then about 30 seconds later, it was gone. The water rushed up so fast I had to run away from it to not get wet! Dwayne got a good laugh out of the rushing water. Those unpredictable waves!
We love spending time on the beach! It is one of our favorite places to have lunch or just take a walk.
Great sun, great weather, great company, great day at the beach!
We left our footprints....
....and our hand prints. Bet you can't guess which one is mine and which one is Dwayne's!
After our lazy time on the beach we headed down to have lunch at Monterey's Wharf. Lots of seafood options that was for sure, but we aren't really seafood people so we settled on a pub and had delicious burgers and steak fries! It was soooooo yummy and we had the whole place to ourselves!
After we had food in our tummies we decided to check out the shops. In our exploration we found this guy who draws character portraits. We decided to get an updated one of the two of us. I went first.
Then it was Dwayne's turn. The picture turned out well. We plan on hanging on it on our "fun" wall in the house.
We also found this little candy shop. Inside they sold chocolate covered strawberries, one of Dwayne's favorites! Of course, we got one for him to have!
He really enjoyed it!
Another great part of our vacation. We had fun looking at all the different boats that were docked and viewing all the tourist items in the shops. The food was good too! We definitely plan on coming back to Monterey and spending more time in this area. It was time for our next activities of the trip!
