Day Three of Travel to ?

NAPA AND SONOMA CALIFORNIA

Today began with a rental car swap and setting my iPhone GPS to Napa. I arrived in the late morning and had a fantastic breakfast at Gillwood's Cafe in downtown Napa. The Mimosa just completed the already great and sunny morning. After breakfast I had my nails done ( I know...how girly is that?) and went to the Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory for a chocolate dipped frozen banana! I walked around Napa a bit and then decided to head for Sonoma.

This is the park in downtown Sonoma. I was so impressed with the quaint, old-world feeling town center. I could spend some serious time relaxing here. The little shops, cafes, art galleries, and sitting areas with star jasmine and other yummy flowers only adds to the smell of gourmet food and WINE! Mmmm I wish I weren't the driver today or I would have had a bit. :o)

On the way back to Travis AFB I stopped at the most beautiful Vineyard I'd passed on the way up and explored the estate and the vineyards a little.

The road wound around the hills and beautiful vineyards. On they way home I found a Trader Joe's (yummy organic fruit), grabbed some dinner from the Commissary (grocery store) and returned my car rental. A very good day and I am ready for sleep. ~ Sarah
