     @skinnylatte I used to go to the aquarium a lot when I was little and this is the room that has left the biggest impression on me by far, I still remember what the fonts on the walls look like

     Many of my days in Monterey kick off here. It’s the coffee spot near work I tend to have breakfast meetings at, and also the mid point stop on my bike ride there.

     @skinnylatte my former law firm hosted its annual attorney retreat in Monterey every couple of years (we rotated between there, Tahoe, and Napa). we would always have a private Friday night dinner at the Aquarium. Standing by that tank, mildly buzzed, when it’s not crowded was magical.
