Slow Adventures


There is a new activitiy to do on Monterey Bay. You can sign up with Slow Adventures and hike around the bay. Slow adventures gives you map, route, and itineraries, sets up your lunch, carries your luggage from place to place, and sets up the plan. You get to walk through the less travelled places and see vistas and wildlife you can not access by car. One of their overnights is right here at the Captain's Inn. These ladies are just a few of the Slow Adventure hikers who navigated the bay by foot.

A very cheerful group came and stayed at the Captain's Inn this May. The red hat ladies were lively, happy and lighthearted. They enjoyed the Elkhorn Slough Safari, walks on our beaches, and great meals at Phil's Fish Market. Their smiles are welcome back, anytime.

Breakfast


This fine family is visiting us from Las Vegas, Nevada. They are pictured here at breakfast in the Captain's Inn dining room. For breakfast today they had apple pastry, mango fruit plate and sweet potato pancakes with bananas and cream plus chicken apple sausages. Part of their plans for the weekend are to enjoy the festivities at the Castroville Artichoke Festival only a few miles from here.

This is just a wonderful, colorful year for wildflowers on our sand dunes. Only a two block walk from the Inn and you can wander the rolling dunes and enjoy the variety of colors and shapes. The photos here are of silky beach pea, sand verbena, and beach primrose.
