a trip to monterey

Last weekend, we took a day trip down to Monterey to see the aquarium. We had a nice lunch at a restaurant overlooking the water. Jessica got a toy ring from the hostess and had fun looking at it in the mirror.



She even gave a nice smile to her daddy while we were waiting for lunch.



Once at the museum, we checked out the new flamingo/turtle/penguin exhibit. She liked the animals and liked this big penguin even better.



And, in the kid's play section, she pretended to be a whale as she used the toy flippers.
