Not a real cafe, but an interactive exhibit at the Monterey Bay Aquarium that teaches visitors about the toll commercial fishing is taking on our oceans and the animals that inhabit them.















The jellyfish exhibit is one of my favorites. So beautiful!





















Dennis the Menace Park

This park is incredible, an absolute must when visiting Monterey with young children.

    1. Some of the guys in the fire department have started a Mustache March tradition, which calls for them to grow out their mustaches for the entire month of March. Stephen is still rocking his, even though we're nearly a week into April. I like it too! :)

  2. I love me a vacation photo journal! :) Quite a few of these were taken by Stephen...kid's got an eye. :) Loved the chain link photo and the ones you took of the jelly fish, so amazingly clear, almost like I could reach out and touch them! Your kids look adorable in all of them (hello? blue net tunnel thingy - awesome shots!)...miss seeing your pretty face, but I know how it goes. :) Thanks for sharing, lady! That park DOES look amazing. Good tip!
