(Contd. from page 7...)
You'll even have safari-like accommodations like canvas tents, for that "out of Africa" vibe.
28. Hear a Family Secret
The Ledson family has been making fine wines for generations. Hear some of the secrets that have made this winery so respected, and participate in special wine tours or sign up for a wine club. For your convenience you can also check in the Ledson's Hotel, or schedule your trip during the special tasting events.
29. Have a Great Time at Howarth's
Howarth Park, on Summerfield Road, has loads of family activities for every age and personality. You can go on a picnic underneath the oak and eucalyptus trees. Dad can go fishing or fire up a barbecue, kids can go sailing, and you can burn off those calories with a game of tennis or a relaxing jog around the park. Schedule your trip during the summer and you can even ride a carousel or a train.
30. Support the Arts
Between the Sonoma and Napa Valley you will find the di Rosa Preserve, which is home to one of the United States most extensive regional art collections. And unlike most museums around the world, the paintings are surrounded by Mother Nature's own masterpiece: miles and miles of beautiful landscape, thanks to the vineyard setting.
