San Francisco...the rest of the story



So we've been back home now for a few weeks and I have yet to post pictures of the rest of our trip to San Francisco. It was an amazing trip and we are definitely adding Napa Valley to our must travel list (a list of places we must go visit once our kids are grown and we can travel regularly). Here are some pictures from the rest of our trip out west.

Our lovely fire pit -

And who can forget the smores -
Welcome to Artesa...a Spanish vineyard, still owned by one of the oldest wine families in Spain -
The wine was good, but the views from up here were amazing. The whole winery (besides the grapes and vines of course) is built underground for earthquake protection.

One of the views...from up here you had almost a 360 degree view of the Sonoma Valley. Pretty breathtaking! All around us were vineyards...they went on for miles. Supposedly there are over 400 wineries in Napa Valley. That makes for lots of wine tasting :)

We also visited an Italian winery called Viansa, however my pictures didn't turn out so cute from that winery...maybe too much wine tasting on my part. Anyway, here are some beach pictures. We went walking on the beach one morning...it was WAY too cold out there, but the beach was incredible. We both agreed that this was by far the most beautiful beach we had ever been on...love how the water crashes against the rocks in the water.

That's our hotel in the background -
Famous Pier 39 and the sea lions in the background -

The beautiful Golden Gate Bridge -
