    Additionally, when my wife and I were there last Spring, I was anxious to return to San Francisco, where we planned to return the rental car and stay a few more days exploring the Bay Area.

    Nice video. However, the video's advising visitors to skip Monterey Bay Aquarium (early in the video -- supposedly because you can see sea life by biking along the Coastal Recreational Trail) is misleading. In the Aquarium, you see 35,000 marine animals (550 species) and many more plant species. In contrast, on a bike ride from the Aquarium to Asilomar (about 3 miles), you might see 100 animals (a dozen species). Both the bike ride and the Aquarium are great, but in terms of seeing marine life up close, the Aquarium is vastly superior. In Japan, the world-famous Osaka Aquarium Kaiyukan (once the world's largest aquarium) is amazing, too. However, Monterey Bay Aquarium is even better, because seeing the marine life is easier and the tour is more educational. (I recommend both aquariums.) But don't skip the spectacular Coastal Recreational Trail, either.
