We took a day trip to Sonoma today and enjoyed every minute. We visited Cline Vineyards, which was very kid-friendly. They had pretty grounds, with lots of ponds, some stocked with fish to feed, some donkeys, lots of exotic birds to look at and a California Mission Museum. They also happen to have lots of picnic tables, so it would be a great place to just bring a picnic and hang out. We would have done that, but Sonoma is the home to one of our favorite restaurants, The Girl and the Fig, so we chose to drive into town to go there for lunch. This visit was no different than any other, the food was fabulous! We ordered a lot of dishes to share and enjoyed Oxtail Risotto, Pork Belly sandwich, Mussels and Frites, Smoked Salmon, a wonderful cheese plate, Duck Confit Hash and Lavender Creme Brulee for dessert. Unfortunately, for Julia, she slept through the entire meal, but we made a special little to go box for her, which she enjoyed after some playing in the park. It seems that Alex and Livia like the restaurant as much as we do, too!
