The sea lions are really piling up along the Fisherman’s Warf beaches. We walked along the water and saw all the sea lions on our way to check out a Coast Guard helicopter that landed at Breakwater (San Carlos Beach) for an open house event.
The US Coast Guard Cutter Morris (WSC-147) stopped off in Monterey on a voyage from the Sacramento area to Texas to a new museum home. This is an Active-class patrol boat dating back to 1927 and was in service until 1971. Pretty neat seeing this old ship go through Monterey on her way to the Panama Canal and points eastward.
We saw a water rescue demonstration put on by the regional Coast Guard helicopter today. It was a great show during the Coast Guard open house here in Monterey.
