<font size="2" color="#330000"><font size=5>Y</font>es, it's true.

<b>Pebble Beach</b> has one of the BEST golf courses in the world... if not the BEST!
My golf-mad colleagues will even fly to this side of the world just to golf at Pebble Beach's world championship course!!! Amazing...

Nestled in the <b>Del Monte Forest</b> just next to the ocean between <b>Pacific Grove</b> and <b>Carmel</b>, <b>PEBBLE BEACH</b> is THE place where all the power and sophistication that money can buy plays second fiddle to nature.
Money REALLY talks here.

<i>Did you know that this is the ONLY town in the entire U.S.A. where an outsider has to PAY to get in?</i> The fee? <b>US$7.50</b>.
Yes, <b>Pebble Beach</b> is located inside the world-famous <b>17-Mile Drive</b>.

But it is well-worth the money (<i>in my personal opinion</i>) since you'll never have another chance to see spectacular scenery such as this....

The people who live here have paid ALOT to dwell in such <i>au naturel</i> settings. Houses here cost at least a cool US$3 million and upwards (<i>as I was told by an American friend</i>). Some of California's richest men (and women) have homes here....
And, they have also vowed, legislated and put up huge gates to keep it that way.

<b>MONTEREY</b>, <b>CARMEL</b>, <b>SAN SIMEON (HEARST CASTLE)</b> and <b>BIG SUR</b>
as they are all closely related.
Thanks!</font>
