The Open is finally upon us! Today we went to the course to go to the Merchandise Village because it was open to the general public today and was not crowded. Everything is all set and ready to go and we can't wait.
This is the main entrance into the course and all the tents, etc. that go with it. Since we are volunteers we will be able to ride a shuttle which picks us up about 5 miles from where we are staying so we don't have to worry about the traffic. We will be able to ride the shuttle even on the days that we are not working so that is a really nice benefit. Nick is with us and we all have our uniforms ready to go as tomorrow at 1:30 is our first shift.
After we left the golf course we drove around Monterey and Carmel and found this rocky beach. The water was really cold but really clear and was beautiful. After we got back to the trailer Nick and I went for a walk on the beach and saw lots of jelly fish. I have never seen a jelly fish, it looked like a big chunk of ice and I almost touched it because it was so wierd looking. Luckily Nick knew what it was a stopped me before I had the chance.
While we were out driving we went down to Cannery Row and walked around and had lunch. The weather was beautiful until about 3:30 when the marine layer came in. It is now about 8:00 and the marine layer is gone and it is clear and beautiful. What a fun day we had.
