Monterey Peninsula
Besides the natural beauty of the Monterey Peninsula, the surrounding community contains numerous recreational opportunities ranging from the Monterey Bay Aquarium (a must do) to a round of golf at numerous world class golf courses. A walk along the cliffs at Pt. Lobos State park watching the sea otters frolic in the bay below is something to remember forever. The meeting precedes Memorial Day weekend so that after the meeting, one can drive along the coast and visit Pfiffer-Big Sur area (also a must do) or San Francisco and Wine Country.
