Day Eleven, A Small Geographical Area

We did some way fun stuff today.  We went to Vision Quest/Monterey Zoo, a training area for wild animals where you get to see them up close and personal.  Abel felt quite at home.

In N Out Burgers, recommended by our dear friend Deacon Harrison was a fabulous lunch spot.  Squeaky clean burger guys delivering up old fashioned, fast real food.  Three main items on the menu, hamburger, cheeseburger, double cheesburger, along with real potatoes (I saw them being peeled) fried up in baskets in a red and white kitchen.  Cute and yummy.

After an exciting afternoon of seeing real animals and eating some too, we headed down the 17 mile highway that takes you past Pebble Beach and it's famous golf course.  The drive around this peninsula is spectacular.



We wandered about the golf course at Albert's behest.  It was fabulously beautiful, and, more importantly, famous.  Pictured below is Albert in front of the 18th hole.  


After this lovely loop of many vista points, we came out at Carmel, and went to the Mission there, San Carlos Borromeo, where Bl. Junipero Serra is buried.  We attended a 5:30 pm Mass and took in the meticulously cared for mission.  Tonight we are staying in Carmel, and will head through Big Sur and the Mission of San Luis Obispo.
