Carmel Getaway

Brendon had a five day weekend from school (woohoo!) so we rented a house with some friends in beautiful Carmel.
The first day we drove a few miles to Point Lobos. It was gorgeous and we saw tons of seals and sea lions.


The second day we went to Monterey Bay Aquarium. It was awesome. Beckham surprised us by being truly fascinated by all the fish. He loved to stare at them.


Family picture in the clam. Cheese!
Ok...these two are seahorses. Can you believe it? I loved the seahorse exhibit. The one below you have to do a double-take to realize it's not seaweed.

The last day we drove around downtown Carmel and then did relaxing 17 mile drive.
Brendon and Beckham loved playing on the beach.
We also watched the surfers for a while. Pretty amazing. But brr...I wouldn't want to surf in February.
And the Lone Cyprus Tree on the drive.
