    Post-Burns Supper activities for the Bay Area Rabble

    After talking with Panache on this subject, I am posting this for everyone that's staying over until the Sunday afterwards.

    What would you like to do?

    So far, Monterey Bay Aquarium, Henry Cowell State park nearby, Lots of beaches to see or lunch at the Seabright Brewery?

    (those came from Jamie)

    My Significant Other suggested lunch at Sly McFly's near the aquarium. There's also Bubba Gump's but it's hard to get in there due to long lines.

    Any other suggestions? Please chime in!

    BTW, we're staying at the Best Western in Scotts Valley if anyone wants to carpool with us to the supper. We have room for two in our decadent capitalist gas-guzzling SUV.

    To qualify for the Guinness World Record it has to take place at 2100 GMT on Sunday.

    I would like to know by the 15th what we're going to be doing, because if we're NOT going to the Aquarium, I've been asked by a co-worker if she can borrow our guest passes. I told her I'd probably know by Thursday, and if we're not using them I would bring them in to work that day.

    I'd love to go hang out at the Seabright Brewery and maybe visit the beach.

    Be well,

    OK,

    Here is my proposition...Tim get your mind out of the gutter!

    Either

    We hit Natural Bridges State beach 10:30 / 11:00 AM to about 12:30 and then cruise on over to the Seabright brewery for lunch and a tasty beverage.

    Or

    We wander the Santa Cruz Garden Mall meeting at 10:30 / 11:00 someplace and wander about window shopping and being our Nor Cal Rabble selves and then around 12:30 either cruising on over to the Seabright brewery for lunch and a tasty beverage or 99 Bottles of Beer at the Mall for lunch and a tasty beverage.

    Any takers?

    Cheers

    Jamie
