So happy to be back here. We are over at Porto Bodega Marina this time, parked right on the bay. (Looks like sunset with a martini is in our near future, doesn't it? Just the sounds of seagulls and sea lions. No screaming children. Ahhhh. The spots are large, with…

I drove into the city and picked Kevin up tonight from Moscone Center. I did a little bit of quick research earlier to see if there was some good Mexican food near us and found a place with good reviews. We decided to check it out for dinner on the…

Comments closedThis morning when we got up it wasn't windy at all. We thought we'd go for a drive up Hwy 1 to some of the view pullouts to do a few flights with the hexacopter for some dramatic aerial shoreline footage. Here's Kevin from one of the takeoff spots North…
Comments closedWe were thinking we should watch The Birds while we were here, but it's not available as a "Watch it Now" movie on Netflix (though they probably do sell it at the Visitors Center). Oh well. This plaque we saw over on the bay reads: Bodega Bay and Harbor Discovered…
