Staying at a Winery
Midday temp: 16C
Last night we realized that because we want to visit wine country we will have to leave the coast highway and travel inland. So after about 10 more miles of coastline we headed east, over a mountain or two, and then travelled along the Anderson Valley and the Mendocino winery
