you're good. Salinas has a fairly large farm population and many folks Hispanic. They are not bad people, but generally incomes are a lot lower. So entertainment there is not exacly spectacular.
the best tip was earlier - try to hit that Monterrey Bay aquarium. and don't stick aorund Salinas for food - go over to Monterrey and Cannery Row. Well worth the time if you find a good restaurant !!

x 2. Drop the $10 or $20 to go drive the golf course/Pebble Beach (I think it's up that way; been about 10 years). Monterey museum is great, but really about the only touristy-thing I know of.
How far do you plan on venturing? San Jose is only an hour from San Fransisco, which is only an hour from Napa ... next thing you know, you'll be passing Portland. Hearst Castle might be worth a day (only about 120 miles, but take PCH, not 101, for an absolutely gorgeous drive up the coast). Might get lucky and pass all the sea lions at Sea Lion Beach, about 30 miles north of Hearst Castle.
