Monday
Surprisingly, we left Bodega Bay on Sunday morning in bright sunshine and drove inland. We stopped in the middle of Santa Rosa for a cuppa at a Peets coffee house. Spent a nice couple of hours chatting to some locals. I like Santa Rosa.
We drove on through the hills, dropping down into Calistoga (which is a lovely name for a town, it has a song called Calistoga In The Rain, which is a great title, but it is a naff song), which is at the head of Napa Valley. We pulled into the Bothe-Napa State Park and found a nice shady campsite, nicely protected from the constant sunshine, of course there are mosquitoes here, but you can't have everything. (so it seems). In the evening we drove into Calistoga, which is a pleasant and pretty little town, and ate a burger at the Hydro Grill and sat and listened to 'Swing 7' a small jazz band (with a combined age of about 500 years), playing for a while.
Today, Monday, we (that is Sally, I just watch) caught up on our laundry.
This afternoon we confounded the mosquitoes by putting up our Gazebo with built in Mozzy nets. Ha!
