My vacation to California took me to Monterey, where my friends Barbara and Raj got married. Monterey is beautiful and the weather was nice and cool. There are wild animals throughout the bay.
Cormorants, sea lions, and sea otters
The day after the wedding, everyone was invited to the Monterey Bay Aquarium.
Black Sea Nettle
Decorator crab
Sea anemone
Warty sea cucumber
The Aquarium also hosts shorebirds that are being rehabilitated.
There was a special exhibit of seahorses
What aquarium would be complete without penguins?
