We're going to be spoilt for choice, for things to do, that's for certain.

I made list of all the activities during Monterey Car Week (below). Afraid I can't take part in them all without greatly offending my wife and daughters (this is a family vacation after all), so I'm gonna have to pick just a few. I've got my tickets for the Monterey Historics (Sat.). I also plan on visiting the Carmel concours and Canepa Design. I've heard The Quail gathering may have lots of Cobras, more so than the Pebble Beach concours.
