Also, any recommendations for planning this trip, or things to do/see/places to dine while in the area, are welcome!
Thanks in advance!
omg!! i'm tellin' you right now... you are going to love it!!! the outer bay aquarium is awesome...they used to keep a great white there, but they recently had to take it out because it started killing the other fish. Go in the morning because that's when they do the outer bay feeding and you can watch the 600 pond tuna eat!
You can do it in a day. Don't go on a weekend... it'll be way too crowded.
cannery row is nice. I love el toritos and bubba gump shrimp... I haven't tried the small restaurants.
You are going to LOVE napa... so beautiful!
I also suggest going to San Francisco... it's only about an hour and a half away from monterey. Fisherman's Wharf is always fun, but a little crowded... You can shop at union square... and you must see the new bloomingdales... it's HUGE and the bathrooms are beautiful! lol if you go to San Francisco I can tell you a few really good small restaurants... sorry I'm not much help withMonterey... I don't go there much, but it is beautiful.
