(Contd. from page 4...)
17. Take a Scenic Air Tour
You may not have the time to "see everything" - at least, not in the traditional sense. But with one special scenic air tour you can travel over miles and miles of land in mere hours, taking amazing photographs and even reaching spots that are normally inaccessible by road.
Your pilot can also give geographical and historical information, or customize the trip especially for you. Visit http://www.sonomacountyairport.com/scenic-air-tours.php for more information.
18. Take the "Golden Route."
California's famous Highway 1 will take you through the world's most beautiful coastlines. Get an amazing view of the Pacific ocean, going past beaches and tree-lined paths. Roll down the windows and breathe in the refreshing breeze. Drink in the freedom of the clear, blue horizon. No wonder it's called the "All American Road."
19. Discover an Ancient Forest
What a refreshing change from skyscrapers and cramped condos or office cubicles! Armstrong Woods has over 805 meters of tree groves (some dating to over 1,500 years old). These redwoods reach up to 300 feet, creating an amazing canopy for long walks and relaxing picnics.
20. Meet Mark Twain
Hear about the history of California from one of the country's best story tellers, Mark Twain. A professional actor and historian will portray the famous writer as he talks about the beginning of his writing career in 1964, with interesting trivia on the Gold Rush woven in between.
