We were happy to have at least one warmish morning before leaving Sausalito!
and were able to check out the houseboats which are fun to see..... even though there wasn't too much water around them!
We decided to visit the Mission in Sonoma..... which is very interesting....
and then have lunch at a restaurant we have liked over the years... The Girl and the Fig.
where we had quite a light lunch....
Starting, of course, with some local wines!
and ending with a nice cheese plate....
Happily the weather had improved dramatically and we were able to eat outdoors.
Then on to our next stop, Silverado Resort, just outside Napa. We rented a fantastic apartment overlooking the golf course.... and we would definitely return as it was very quiet and very comfortable!
nice living room.......
and two large bedrooms........
.
We decided to eat in as we had lunched out.....
However we did not exactly feel deprived... after a trip to Whole Foods!
Next day we made it up as far as the Clos Pegase Vineyard, just outside Calistoga. This again was a re-visit for us.....we like their art!
Then back down to St Helena for lunch in the Farmstead. Again we lunched outdoors.
The food was good but not exceptional.....
Then on to another vineyard with art..................
