Beautiful beaches in Marin County, CA - China Beach

We went to China Beach in the Marin County of CA.  It was gorgeous!!!  It feels so secluded, but it not too far from San Rafael and has some amazing historical buildings in addition to the scenery.

Stay and dine on a riverboat at the Delta King Hotel in Old Sacramento, CA

I've walked by the Delta King many times while visiting Old Sacramento.  This hotel is an actual river boat, as well as bar, restaurant and hotel.  One day I'd like to dine and stay overnight onboard this gem.

Favorite Breakfast and Lunch place in Danville, CA- Sideboard Cafe

I love the Sideboard Cafe!  My son and I have gone many times, and it is a great place to hang out with your dog on the outdoor patio.

I picked up a bag of their handmade granola last time I was there to take home.  It contained oats, peanuts, almonds, cashews, pepitas, amaranth, local honey, oil, and salt.

In the charming village of Southampton, there is a bakeshop called Tate's Bake shop.  The dream of a bakeshop started when 11 year old Kathleen King began making cookies to sell at her family's farm stand not far out of town.  Now, in a cozy colonial era building there is a bakeshop framed in flowers, Tate's bake shop!
