Point Pinos Lighthouse

I had to visit Point Pinos Lighthouse while in Monterey, of course. The museum here is particularly amazing, with the interior of the entire two story house setup as it would have been in 1855. Really cool time capsule. What's neat about Point Pinos too is that it's the oldest continuously operated lighthouse on the west coast, and is the only one with its ORIGINAL fresnel lens still in use today. The lens is of third order design.
