If I had one more weekend to live, I’d play a round of golf at Pebble Beach, dine at Carmel-by-the-Sea, watch a sunset at Asilomar State Beach, catch the sunrise at Big Sur and then go willingly into the great beyond!

My perfect day is when I can watch the sun rise over the city from the Monterey Plaza Hotel and Spa’s upper patio. Everything about it, from the sound of the softly crashing waves and playful seagulls to the dreamy sailboats and adorable sea otters, reminds me of just how lucky I am to call Monterey home.
