We were whisked away to Monterey on a business/fun trip for a few days. It was absolutely stunning. We were at the Inn at Spanish Bay which is right on 17 mile drive. I was looking forward to LONG walks on the beach while the guys golfed. The second day we were there the winds picked up to near 30 miles an hour! Crazy! Even crazier is trying to golf in that weather, but the guys stuck it out all day and loved it. I managed a one hour walk each day nearly getting blown off my feet when I would get to certain jut out points of the ocean. The first day the girls went into Carmel for lunch and window shopping and then we "recuperated" at the spa. It was fun to get to know all of the new people Scott is working with and their spouses.
The second day the winds were calming down by the afternoon, so I booked a horse ride. I ended up being the only one in the group so the guide and I had a great time visiting and basking in the beauty of the clear skies after all the wind. We started going through the forest area, seeing many deer and bucks, and then as we came to the top of the hill -- there was the stormy ocean. (The pictures don't capture the degree of wind and waves.) It was clear and sparkling in the sun, with heavy waves crashing on the rocks. I was in heaven!

Looks like a fun trip! I love the picture of you on the horse with the ocean background. So pretty!
