Celebrating 40 years of inspiring conservation of the ocean
I’m been volunteering at the Monterey Bay Aquarium since 2017 and have loved every minute of it! The MBAquarium just celebrated its 40th anniversary. Wow! 40 years of inspiring conservation of the ocean and providing an educational facility for all to learn about the ocean – kids and adults alike.

In honor of the anniversary the staff has created a amazing video talking about their favorite animals.
A Fun Parody of “My Favorite Things” with an Aquarium Theme
When the Monterey Bay Aquarium closed in March 2020, as a Volunteer Monterey Bay Aquarium Guide, I was so disappointed. My Thursday afternoon volunteer gig was the highlight of my week!
I can’t wait until we open soon!
The Aquarium staff thought they would have a little fun and created this delightful parody sung to the tune of “My Favorite Things” from the Sound of Music – only it’s “My Favorite Aquarium Things”!

The charming seaside town of Pacific Grove is attracting many new residents, second home owners, and visitors for many reasons. Boasting the most beautiful coastline on the Monterey Peninsula, its natural beauty has no equal.
Spring time in Pacific Grove showcases the “Pink Carpet”!
America’s Last Home Town as it is sometimes called, also has a “down home” community feel where you know your neighbors and shopkeepers by name and you are greeted when you arrive at your favorite restaurant.
Enjoying a nice breakfast at Victorian Corner.
For those who love the ocean, the marine life is amazing.Right off the coastline of Pacific Grove is a section of the Monterey BayNational Marine Sanctuary, the largest marine sanctuary in the US.
Recreation Trail follows the coastline. Outside enthusiasts enjoy biking, walking, skating, and riding the surreys.
From the Recreation Trail which runs along the coast, you can spot whales as they migrate, Harbor seals as they give birth in the spring,
Harbor seals with their newborn pups.
and a multitude of seabirds, fishes, and invertebrates, if you like to observe the tide pools. Just don’t remove any animals – it is a sanctuary! The Monterey Bay Aquarium features an underwater view of the Bay which attracts visitors from all over the world and inspires the conservation of our oceans.
Since it is such an idyllic place, real estate values have skyrocketed in the last 10 years.Never quite as well known as its neighboring towns like Carmel and Monterey, Pacific Grove always kept a slightly lower profile. No more.As soon as a home is listed for sale, it is purchased by an eager buyer wanting to be a part of this dream place.
