From the Wine Trail to the Bay

We continued our tour of wine country, moving down to Sonoma, and then Napa Valleys.  On an absolutely beautiful blue sky Saturday, we biked past St.Helena and returned to Yountville.  Made our mandatory stop at the Oakville Grocery, and noted how much more crowded was the Napa Valley. 

Almost forgot to mention that we stopped back at Mondavi Vineyards, where we remembered that the last time we were there, as part of the wine tasting, they served smoked salmon on crackers between sips.  Sad to say, no more - - but, Morey was able to help direct the throngs of winees coming for a taste of their own.

Our special treat was dinner at the Ad Hoc restuarant where our chosen menu included tender and succulent short ribs, the freshest garden salad (from their own garden nearby), a cheese course, and a perfectly crafted apple crisp.  Words cannot describe how good it was!

After indulging in such a great dinner, we needed to work off some of the calories, so today we parked in Sausalito with our RV (challenging) and rode our bikes across the Golden Gate Bridge to San Francisco.  Another beautiful blue sky day!!
