On Monday we took the kids to Monterey Bay Aquarium, which is always a fun place to visit. The kids especially love seeing all the fish there. I took quite a few pics from inside the aquarium, but nothing turned out really special, so I probably won’t post any. But outside the aquarium on the deck, I also took a few pics. This one of a pelagic cormorant in particular turned out really nice. We also saw harbor seals, sea lions, sea otters, and even a gray whale that was surfacing quite close in the bay (though I did not get a picture of it). All in all, it was a gorgeous day in Monterey. In fact, it was warm, way too warm for January. It felt more like May or June. But thankfully, we finally are getting some much needed rain this weekend now. Maybe I’ll even get to check out some waterfalls.
