More photos from both the aquarium and the Monterey downtown. Much of the history of this place is from the sardine factories which made that area so famous. Old sardine factories are now other shops, restaurants and stores, even the aquarium used to be a sardine packing plant. Cannery Row, a setting for another Steinbeck book, is located in this town as well, but isn't really much to look at, hence no photos.
