The Wine Country

Sunday we headed out through Sonoma and Napa Valley for a little wine tasting and a tour of the Beringer Brothers Winery. Sonoma proved to be a very interesting stop. We had a great lunch at La Casa Mexican Restaurant.


This Cactus is in full bloom and it is so pretty. It was in front of the mission. We walked around the Sonoma Plaza and found many interesting things to look at, including a free museum at an old hotel. See the pictures below.












We did not take the tour here, only looked from the outside.













The mission bell says 1629.














This is the lobby of the hotel museum... imagine that, free admission and they encourage you to take pictures. The place was staffed by volunteers.

We did stop by Robert Mondavi Vineyards and took the tour and wine tasting at Beringer Brothers Winery.
