(Contd. from page 10...)
38. Step into a Watercolor Scene
John Muir was a famous bird enthusiast and painter. Explore the woods that inspired some of his most popular works, by going to the Muir Woods National Monument. Tours can also take you to the nearly town of Healdsburg, wineries, and the picturesque Russian River. You can also incorporate wine tours.
39. Go on a Sightseeing "Marathon."
Take a multi-sport tour that incorporates all the outdoor activities and attractions in Sonoma. You'll bike, kayak, and hike, with plenty of pit stops at wineries and restaurants. It's the perfect trip for people who love the outdoors, or those who want to exercise in a fun way. At least this is one vacation where you won't gain several pounds from eating too much!
40. Bring Home a Priceless Pot
Why get a cheap knock off when you can invest in one of Beverly Prevost work of art? This talented potter has a studio at the Le Haye Art Center, and her works have graced restaurants and the collections of some of California's most avid art collectors.
41. Chocoholics Paradise
Some wine tasting tours also have chocolate tasting rooms, like the Jack London Village. The premium chocolates are made with extra quality milk to yield delicious dark chocolates. You may even get a free chocolate treat!
