Itinerary for upcoming trip

Hello-

We are flying into Monterey, Aug 1, and staying in the area until Aug 8.

If anyone cares to see what I have on the agenda so far and offer feedback, I'd much appreciate it. 2 adults and a 12 yr old on this trip. We'll have a rental car.

Sat - Fly into Monterey, travel to Santa Cruz for the night. Visit the Boardwalk. I think we'll have time to stop at Elkhorn Slough on the way.

Sun - Henry Cowell Redwoods, travel back to Monterey and check into the hotel.

Mon - Aquarium, Fishermans Wharf, eat @ Bubba Gumps

Tues - leave in the AM for a 4 hr whale watching tour from Moss Landing, eat at Phil's Fish Market in Moss Landing (we've decided to leave from Moss instead of using a tour from Monterey)

Weds - 17 mile drive to Carmel-by-the-Sea for the afternoon

Thurs - Travel Hwy 1 to Pfeiffer State Park and/or Point Lobos

Fri - Rent bicycles to ride the recreation trail OR tide pooling at Asilomar Beach.

TIA!

Also, adding I am aware we're going to be there the week before "car week". We had already taken time off work and reserved hotels/flights before I learned this. We're going to make the best of it.
