Over the past year, we have travelled all over Northern California. I haven't been great at updating my blog so here's my year-in-review, Northern-Cali style!

March 2008
For the long weekend (Memorial Day in the US), we decided to do our first road trip. Our plan was to drive down to Monterey, CA and do the 17 Mile Drive. We rented a car Saturday morning and headed South.
As we got closer to the coast, the weather stopped cooperating. Monterey was windy, rainy, and cold. There isn't much to do in Monterey itself. We had a delicious dinner at Montrio Bistro and went to bed.
We stayed at the Embassy Suites Hotel which had a nice view but reminded me of an all-inclusive resort in Cuba. Bad food and poor service. When we woke up Sunday morning, it was still cloudy.
California in the rain is just not as nice so we changed our plans. We decided to make the best out of it and drive inland. We went wine tasting in Carmel Village and then drove back to San Francisco on Road 9 through Boulder Creek and Saratoga. Good times!
