"Monterrey" on "From the Dust return"

On the Chapter Four of "From the Dust returned", where it says "Born in Boston or die in Monterey", it's Monterey with an "r" o with two "r"s?. I have the spanish version, where it's written with two, like this: Monterrey.
Best regards!

I once wrote a poem, which was published, mentioning Monterey, California when I spelled it with two "r"s and no one caught it.

One "r" in my version, page 18!

My version spells it with one "r" also. William Morrow, 2001.

Thanks pals!, I was thinking that maybe Mr. Bradbury mentioned my city, but I guess it's another Monterey!
Best regards!
