You can go in and out of the drive as many times as you wish.I suggest entering from the Pacific Grove gate and going down to Carmel that way. You can get a excellent lunch at the Tap Room at Pebble Beach Golf Club. I was photographing there last week, during and after a major storm. The waves were fabulous. Views are definitely worth the 7.75. If you're looking for another place for dinner, try Passion Fish in Pacific Grove. Not too expensive particularly the wine list which has a lot of very good wines at rock bottom prices. Brent Dorsett --- NYC
