[quote=Anonymous]The aquarium in Monterey is amazing, but very crowded and pretty expensive.  I think it was almost $250 for our family of four.  Not an obscene amount, but coupled with the crowds, made it not a great experience.  There are Whale watching trips out of Monterey, which are fun.  Big Sur is amazing too.  You can see a lot from your car, but I recommend doing some short hikes.  Inland from Monterey is Pinnacles NP, which is supposed to be great.  We haven’t been yet, but it’s on our list.  We have family in Monterey and go out there often.

It sounds like you have no interest in SF, but if you kids haven’t been, you have to at least check out Golden Gate Bridge.  There are multiple parks on both sides of the bridge.  Our favorite is on the NW side of the bridge from the Battery, which has great bridge and city views.  Also, we love SF.  It’s a fantastic city, whose demise has been extremely exaggerated by the media.  It’s a big city, so you do have to play it smart, but it’s not the wasteland that’s often reported.[/quote]
