Jonah and I celebrated our 1st anniversary on May 31st! In honor of one year of marriage we went to the coast. We had planned to camp at Montana de Oro but when we got there the campground was full. We were told that the Morro Strand campground still had open spots but after a quick round of Rock, Paper, Scissors it was decided that we would drive all the way to Monterey that night. We made there at around 11:30pm only to check into a motel and have our car alarm go off 3 times before we were able to figure out how to turn it off!
This is the motel, the Bayside Inn, I wouldn't recommend staying there.
The next morning we went to the Monterey Bay Aquarium....

This octopus was very active and fun to watch.
As usual the jellyfish were some of my favorite things to look at.
Jonah loved the huge tank with the sharks.
There was a new exhibit called the Secret Lives of Seahorses which was really neat.
This is just an ugly fish I took a picture of.

After walking around Monterey for a little we headed back down the coast. We were planning on camping at Morro Strand but on our way we found a little campground off the 41 and stayed there instead.

Our campground
We went for a hike on a trail that was right by our campsite and it took us up a mountain. As we hiked the fog rolled in and cover our view.
