<font color="#330000", size="2"><font size=5>W</font>armest greetings from one of the loveliest cities here in California.

<i>Did you know that the city of MONTEREY was once the capital of California</i>?
<i>Ah, now you know</i>!

To really enjoy this lovely city by the waterfront, you must first go on a walking tour of <b>Old Monterey</b>. Then later, take a stroll down to the Bay... <i>You won't miss it</i> because it's filled with fishing boats, sail boats and sea otters....
<i>I'm sure you get the picture now huh</i>? :-))

MONTEREY is also home to Steinbeck's famous <b>Cannery Row</b>, the much talked about <b>Old Fisherman's Wharf</b>, a revitalized <b>Downtown</b> and the world-renowned <b>Monterey Bay Aquarium</b>. These are just some of the major tourist attractions that you MUST NOT miss!

And if you were to come to MONTEREY in September, you'd be able to enjoy some cool jazz music when the city plays host to the <b>Monterey Jazz Festival</b>. This is a 3-day extravaganza... and Jazz fans would love it for sure. However, for non-Jazz fans, you may wish to catch the <b>Toyota Grand Prix of Monterey for Indy Cars</b> event instead. <i>Who knows?</i> You might just bump into one of those super-cool racing legends. <i>Yes</i>, I'm talking about Jacque and Michael. :-))
