There was no Thanksgiving trip this. I think was only the second time we missed a trip in 10 years. The boys are old enough now, they look forward to these trips every year. Being the good natured kids they are, they adjusted to fact that we would be home and looked forward to a visit from Aunt Gina. We went to Pacific and took the "Pepper" too. The first day we went to the Monterey Bay Aquarium. Their displays have changed some since the last time we were there. The sea horse exhibit is amazing along with the jelly fish, although that was scaled down from last time. The boys touched sea anemone, sting rays, sea slugs and urchin.
Some things have changed, like the two story aquarium in the addition that was the whole length of the building. The clam, in the picture below, has obviously shrunk over the past few years.

And lastly, this sculptural fountain that the kids had used to jump in puddles and splash around in, is no longer out back. And the rest of trip was great too. We stayed close to the RV camp the next couple days and went down to see what we could find at low tide. It rained some but that didn't stop us from using the spa and pool.
