Sounds like a great trip. I'm going to hit Monterey for the Jazz festival this year, and maybe try to do this trip package around it. Thinking of staying at the Tradewinds Carmel Hotel while in Monterey.

I don't know if you all have made this trip or not. If not, when you visit Monterey, stay away from the Mucky Duck pub. The service sucks, food not too great and expensive. Go to the Crown & Anchor instead. They don't treat you like you owe them.

Read the Yahoo reviews on the Dead Duck before you go to Monterey. 75% of the people that go to this dump regret having gone there. Help them go out of business so we can get a better pub in this space.
