So finally on to the second day of our Bodega Bay weekend getaway last February. (
how has it already been almost a
YEAR since we were there?!)
We started our day off with a nice complimentary breakfast, provided by our cozy little hotel,
Bodega Harbor Inn, where we ate outside at the picnic tables by the community area, overlooking a beautiful view of the harbor beyond the town.

Chairs set out in the common area, overlooking the water... it was really pretty at night! |
This was Jacques testing out his portrait photography skills, and I have to say he did a pretty good job! But this also shows the [blurry] view behind me that we were looking at while eating breakfast. =]
Also,
b&w version, just because!

Of course, I couldn't resist capturing this beautiful calla lily at the back of the office building. |
After we were thoroughly stuffed from breakfast, we began the drive up the PCH, heading to Guerneville, with the
Korbel Winery & Champagne Cellars as our destination, since this trip was given to us for the purpose of doing some wine-tasting, after all! (Plus, we had some free vouchers, provided by the hotel) However, you know me, I couldn't help wanting to stop along the way to take some breathtaking photos of the coast.

I really liked the use of this rock formation to focus on, as you can see from the next couple photos as well! |

This one, I just liked how the seagull was resting peacefully on the table, with the sounds of the ocean in the background. |

Another view of the coast, with some housing. I would love to have this as my front yard!! |

Stopping for a macro shot of the mundane fence? Of course! |
