I never miss the Monterey Bay Aquarium. It is simply awesome and unlike any aquarium you'd ever see...I mean, it's got to be the best in the world, or at least in the top 3. They have a deep ocean tank that's got huge sunfish and sharks in it...they even kept a Great White (juvenile) in it for a bit (released now). It's quite a drive down to Monterey from 'Frisco (about 50 or 60 miles), but I always, always go. I usually grab a bite to eat near the aquarium where you can watch Sea Lions bask from your dinner table (but be prepared for lackluster tourist-trap food), then hit the aquarium. If I leave early enough, I sometimes hit the Santa Cruz boardwalk on my way back to San Francisco, mostly for the nostalgia of my parents taking me as a kid (or because the "Lost Boys" from the 80's film hung out there..in the movie anyway), but it can get kind of scary there lately (population wise).
The aquarium is great at feeding time (usually around 1 pm if memory serves). The kelp forest is awesome with two-three story tall tanks (also the sea otters). The Monterey area is beautiful to begin with anyway, so it's nice to visit anyway, especially if you like Steinbeck.

My grandchildren have thrived at Great Beginnings Early Learning Center! They look forward to going to school everyday and have a wonderful time while they are there. The teachers are very caring and in tune with the children. Not only are the children safe and cared for ( a huge peace of mind) but they also have a lot of fun and learn so much. Their new facility is absolutely beautiful! I would recommend Great Beginnings to anyone who is looking for an outstanding place for their children!

This preschool has an atmosphere like a child's fantasyland. It's where you would have loved to go as a child - and it's been around so long some of you may have. Amazing staff, great full educational program, hands on learning. Computers, reading, writing, basic social skills, etc. - even for the part time attendee's. I can only afford to send my child there 2 days a week, but after only a few months she's already about a year ahead of her age group of playmates that attend full time elsewhere. Perhaps I'll get a second job to send her full time, it would be worth my time for the huge advantage she'll receive by this excellent source of early education.
