Carmel and Monterey

O LORD, how great are thy works! and thy thoughts are very deep.

Psalms 92: 5

A stroll through the town of Carmel where we stayed. We got a light dinner here at this bakery...

The trunk of the famous native Monterey Cypress. Some of these trees are over 300 years old...

Oops! I lost my sandals and then dropped my purse in the water. My cell phone is now no good. SIGH!

Hey Liz! Look at these!

Exploring Lovers Point!

I don't know what lovers are supposed to do when they get up here. Its pretty scarey!

MY ANCHOR HOLDS!

For years I have longed to go out to sea and see an Orca whales. The last day here we went on a whale watching trip from Fishermans Wharf. I prayed the night before and asked God to please us see the orca's. The big gray whales are more comonly seen and that was exciting too, but I have had a fascination with Orca whales. They are beautiful and very interesting.

GOD GAVE ME MY REQUEST!!!!

You can see them in these pictures. We had several sights of sometimes 7-8 whales at a time. We also saw a gray whale and a dolphin. AMAZING!

The most beautiful amazing wonderful thing I have ever seen (next to having a baby)to be out on the ocean in a boat for the first time in my life and to see ORCA'S!

Truly it was a dream come true!

Check out my pictures of the beautiful coastal trees and the lesson they taught me on my

Heavenly Places blog!
