We didn't stay there, we just hiked in for a beer and a burger on the
deck. We stayed at a Hilton in Monterey, close to Laguna Seca where
our friend was racing his spec car. But spending a couple of kilobucks
on a vacation isn't unreasonable. Staying at a beautiful resort on the
Pacific dunes seems a lot nicer than me as compared to, say, a
Princess cruise.

Personally, I like to hike or ski, the only sort of all-day, tiring
activities that take me away from electronics. If I lay on a beach or
something passive like that, I just keep thinking.

What do you do for fun?

Any competent organisation will have these backed up offsite.
