CJ and Jenn in Jose Olé

Alright I'm going to make up for the lack of posting!

We've had quite a busy few weeks and we want to share some pics with ya so instead of just posting a few from the whole vacation I'll post some pictures now and then some more, and some more explaining what we did over the next few days (email me if I forget or get too busy!)

First off, during Thanksgiving week we decided to go and spend some time in Monterey, CA. CJ is a huge Steinbeck fan and has been itching to head down there since we got here. In Monterey is the setting for Steinbeck's book, Cannery Row. It's one of CJ's favorites.

While we were there we saw many things as described in the book that were actual places. We even saw Doc Rickett's shack (where he did all his collecting) and just a bunch of stuff. If you've ever read the book and liked it then you've got to go see Cannery Row. It's so commercial now and is more of a tourist attraction. CJ wanted to start asking random tourists if they had even ever read the book... but all in all it was fun! Here are some pictures from Cannery Row.
