Heading south on Route 101, we arrived at the apparently world-famous Monteray Aquarium - just in time to see the diver feed the fish in the Kelp tank. The Aquarium has lots of jelly fish, a few otters and lots of other sea-life found in Monteray Bay. It has an enormous tank at one end which is made with the largest single glass panel in America. The fish were very well displayed - lots of nice lighting and tanks.... I'm not sure what the fish thought about it.
We stayed in the Aquarium for around 5 hours. then went for a walk along Monteray beach. It was sunny and warm, but there were still quite a few fair-sized waves heading in. We then drove a short way down to Carmel town, still on the coast, at the southern end of the bay. This had a good view of the sun as it set. Lots of photographs later, we found an italian restaurant with table cloths made of plain white paper, and some wax crayons provided for drawing - which proved too temping for me - and eventually Graham - so we left the restaurant with the table-cloth more colourful than when we arrived.
Early start for work tomorrow - so time for some sleep. There are photos of the day on:

I like the pictures :)
No picture of your artistic tablecloth at the restaurant though :(
Another good day, again the aquarium wasn't as big as perhaps we might have been lead to believe. But, we still managed to spend a long time there all the same. Nicely presented, maybe not much to do for the fish though.
Oh, and Sarah, I have pictures of the tablecloth :-) Maybe I'll have to upload to flickr too.
Hmm, the title just reminded me. Kevin's not seen much Red Dwarf so didn't understand why I spent the whole day wandering around saying "FISH!!!" in the style of The Cat.
Today's fish is trout ala creme, enjoy your meal! ....ROTFL!!!
