Monterey Aquarium

Taking a look at the greatly acclaimed Monterey Aquarium.

Penguins.

A really big shark who wouldn't swim slow enough for a picture.

Lunchtime nap in a decorative life preserver.

Touching a sea snail . . . through the glass.

There was a whale on the ceiling.

Candy Store

His favorite thing!

Catching up with a long lost buddy.

San Juan Bautista

Photo op with Father Serra.

Spending money at the awesome local bakery.

Duffy's Tavern

Living life large with a big glass of . . . water!

Unfortunately, they didn't have his size.

Getting Religion

Visiting San Carlos Cathedral in Monterey, a pretty small place.

Very nice Lourdes grotto outside.

Car Trouble

Short detour to the insurance agency.

Fisherman's Wharf

Looking out over the bay, being cold.

Looking a little closer at the bay.

Swimming with sharks, and a few dolphins.

Checking out a car show, but too cheap to buy tickets.

To the Beach!

Visiting the Pacific Ocean!

Catching some rays on the sand, with two new sand dollars.

Lost Baggage

Baggage arrives somewhat later than our intrepid adventurer.

The Joys of Flying

Mr. Katchoop, ready to go, waiting for his flight to board.

Still waiting . . .

Hangs out with some long lost family in Chicago.

Does some souvenir shopping, and acquires appropriate apparel for the colder portions of the west coast.

Jammin'.

Really board for several hours in flight.

Not feeling so well . . .
