Before departure






The pies at this cafe seems pretty nice and huge, however the prices are pretty steep.


Welcome Alcatraz, it's home to a lot of sea birds and is under protection.

nice pictures! You did not stay for the sunset shot of the half dome in Yosemite? A very popular and nice shot

Quite interesting to see all the greens still at this time of the year...

How was Monterey Bay aquarium? I heard it is one of the best and I know they are the first aquarium to keep the Great White Shark alive for short periods of time in captivity.

It's funny, I live here and I never went.

Monterey Bay Aquarium is certainly big & awesome, if given a chance i don't mind heading there again. It's really nice.

Give it a shot at it, don't think you will be too disappointed.

Cheers!
