ive taken it upon myself to spend this last week as a tourist, well technically, i guess i am a tourist since ive only lived in monterey for two short months. nonetheless, i have been shopping and sightseeing around town and the truth is is that ill really miss this little old place. there is so much history and little pockets of hidden treasures throughout the town that im just beginning to discover, but im happy that i was even given the chance to live here for the summer and (plus!) i got to avoid the astronomically high texas temperatures, so not looking forward to moving back to that.
these are pictures from my trip to the cannery row antique mall from over the weekend. this place was really just beyond lovely. i spent so much time roaming around admiring all of the exquisite trinkets. i almost left with a 3-strand gold chain bracelet, but practiced self-control (a real rarity) and told myself to walk away before i dropped more cash on jewelry that i didnt need. the older gentleman who was helping me with opening up the jewelry cases reassured me that even if i didnt end up buying anything that at least i was able to "walk down memory lane"... priceless.
