The holidays are over

We had a great Christmas here in California. My Dad was with us from the 18th of December through to January the 1st. We did a little touring around while he was here to see some of the local sites including Alcatraz, Pebble Beach and the Carmel Valley (which would not be complete without a visit to The Cheese Shop), and Santa Cruz. We also went to Napa Valley to do some wine tasting. This is one place we had not been previously and we enjoyed in a great deal (one of the reasons we love having visitors because it gets us out to see the Californian sites.)

We hope everyone was as spoiled this Christmas as we were, and wish all the best to everyone for a safe and prosperous 2004! Remember, if you are a planning a vacation this year, we love to have company...
