Bike riding in Monteray... 03 July 2006

Today we caught the bus to Monterey, hired bikes and cycled along the scenic 17-mile drive to Pebble Beach. It was cold and quite breezy! We had a lot of fun though, even if the bikes were a lot harder to ride than our road bikes. We definitely got a workout! It was really cool to ride by the ocean. We stopped for lunch at a great little restaurant called "Fishwifes" and had yummy fish sandwiches, then got back on the bikes and rode back to Monterey. That evening we went to the restaurant "Bouchee" in Carmel and had an utterly delicious 3-course meal. We had a great bottle of Shiraz from Kangaroo Island (near my hometown of Adelaide) and the food was just unbelievably good.
