After talking with the harbour master the day before we decided to walk along the golf course into town. What a walk! When we arrived at the shore we were basically in the middle of Pebble Beach Golf Links! We first went to the clubhouse – plush! Looked in the stores – Johnny nearly bought Emsy a diamond necklace (on sale down to $120,000). He decided against it as it was nearly worth as much as the boat. After this we walked the length of the course watching (and distracting at times) the golfers. The next day there was a tournament that Clint Eastwood and George Bush Sr. were playing in! Don't think we'd have been allowed to wander round so freely then.
We finished our walk to town along the beach where we saw a surfing otter! God knows why he was there but you could see him swimming in the waves as they broke on the shore. The town itself was lovely, a bit on the expensive side. Emma was to find this out going from ecstasy to agony when she found a shop selling all UK chocolate bars...and then saw the prices. A good meal in the A.W. Shuk's Oyster Bar followed by a gentle stroll back along the golf course ended a great day though in what has to be the most stunning anchorage on the West coast of America.
