We're here in Monterey, home of Steinbeck and Cannery Row. The weather is a little gloomy but we are staying near the lighthouse at Pacific Grove, a quaint and quiet seaside town. This morning 3 deer were at the back door of our room -- tooo cute!. Yesterday we ventured down to Carmel, home of Clint Eastwood, former Mayor of this town. They make you sign a waiver to wear high heels in the city (!) and Tony couldn't beleive the boot prices...the pair we picked up were only $2400. We were suprised they let us park the T&C there!. Today we stopped in at Salinas and Santa Cruz, walked the downtown and played in the amusement arcade (scence of the Lost Boys). We chatted with a cool custom bike builder called Bill and toured his shop with 60s and 70s memorabilia. He even taught his friend 'Patch' from Days of Our Lives to ride when he was a bit role in Matlock. Tomorrow we head off down to Big Sur then onto LA for a few days. San Francisco is in a cold/rain snap, so we have decided to follow the sun and leave that for another trip xoxox B & T
