This morning, we drove the 17-mile Drive, which takes in the coast, the forests, and the golf courses of the Monterey Peninsula. Had a late lunch at Fisherman's Wharf in Monterey, then browsed the shops of the Wharf and Cannery Row. Supper at our cottage, and rented "Captain Phillips". Tried again for sunset photos over the ocean, but no sun. . . But we are having fun!
