I appreciate your stating a preference of dates. It's a good thing, really. ^

Yay I'm helpful! I can't wait to shoot down to Carmel and get me a Lobster Benedict from Katy's Place ^:D

It would be nice to see Baby t_h_s again. I still have his Prague sunglasses!

Please do. I went last year for a weekend and it was a wonderful wonderful weekend. I have pictures and thoughts for days!

Yesterday's SFGate "10 good reasons to head south": http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/articl...SSR01NB22S.DTL


I learned today some hotels offer 2-day aquarium tickets for 1-day admission prices, and there are behind-the-scenes tours.

No, that would be your sense of humour that's fishy!

Interested (especially after that mention of lobster in Carmel :p). October is looking better for me.

Put me down as interested as well, I'm always looking for a reason to get down to see the aquarium again! I have no preference for dates since I rarely know what my schedule looks like until about a month before, so with enough notice, I can probably make any of those weekends.

As for things to do, does anyone scuba dive? I've also wanted to get down to Monterey to do some dives, especially as I don't have to worry about flying after diving now!

I have my certification, but I haven't done a dive since I did the last one required for my certification. I'd love to have an excuse to dive again.

Sometime around 18-22 Oct would work for me on current schedule. Love Monterey and the Aquarium, Carmel, Big Sur and the whole deal. A meal at Roy's at Pebble Beach, while expensive, would be fantastic. http://www.pebblebeach.com/dining/th...t-pebble-beach
