Last of the vacation posts

OK, so better late than never, but here are the last of the pics and details of our vacation!

Day 4 we drove up to the redwood forest. We drove across the golden gate bridge and up the redwood highway. I have never seen so many trees in my entire life, it was beautiful. We stopped at this place called Chandler Tree, a big ole tree that you can drive through.

We acutally drove through this tree

These trees are really tall

 After this stop, we got back on the highway and we headed further north. We came across the pacific ocean on the way. This was my first time seeing the pacific ocean so Jeremy captured the moment for me!

Don't let these pictures fool you, it was really cold there! I can only imagine what it is like there in the winter months!

Redwood Trees

These trees are amazing, as you drive the highway, this is all you see. It seems that the trees are endless and that they touch the sky.
We then came across this place called fern canyon. At first, you start walking down this little path and then you come to this stream. After that you are walking on little stepping stones and logs that zig zag back and forth across the stream of water. The sigh was absolutely beautiful!

Having fun!

Day 5 we woke up and drove down the costal highway back to Napa. This was the best and most amazing part of the trip. The road signs said "Curves ahead 25 miles" and there were mountains on one side and ocean on the other! So amazing!

This is the view you see in the movies

I Love it here!

We drove for about 5 or 6 hours and finally made it to our hotel in the Napa Valley. The Marriott Spa. So beautiful. We changed and got freshened up and enjoyed a free wine tasting at the hotel. We walked around the grounds as well

We found a cozy swing to enjoy our wine on

After this, we headed to the Domaine Chandon Winery and ate at Etoile. We enjoyed a very expensive and amazing dinner! It was so delicious.

The next morning, we woke up and headed to 2 places for wine tasting. We had breakfast, then went to Jessup Cellars and tried some delicious wine. Afterwards, we headed to Artesia winery and had some not so good wine, but enjoyed the beautiful view!

After this wine tasting, we headed to the airport. We were very sad to be going home but at the same time, very excited to get back home. This was the best anniversary trip ever (well the only one we've been on). I think we decided if we ever go to San Francisco again, we would only stay there for 2 days and then make Napa the longer stay. There are so many wineries and so much to do there, that we didn't have enough time to do it all in 1 day.
