California Dreaming

Advantages: A relaxing place for a few days break
Disadvantages: It's much too far away from London

In February I visited Monterey, a beautiful town on the central coast of California about 110 miles south of San Francisco which has become a popular tourist resort. Why Monterey? This town is 2-3 hours by road from San Francisco, less from the airport or from San Jose and Silicon Valley, and I think about 6 or 7 hours drive from Los Angeles. Because of its location and attractiveness, it has become a popular choice for conventions, and an event was organised there for readers and writers of mystery and crime fiction called Left Coast Crime over a long weekend in February. Hundreds of us descended on the town for a few days. Mikey and I arrived on Tuesday. Because of the convention (held at the Doubletree Hotel 5 minutes walk from the centre of town from Thursday afternoon to Sunday lunchtime), spending time with a large gang ...

Review of Monterey (California)

Tripping down California's Highway 1

Advantages: Mentions places of interest which you might otherwise miss, cheap too.
Disadvantages: Written in 2003/2004 so some prices / information might be slightly outdated

In June 2007 my husband and I took a fly drive holiday to California. Being the kind of person who?s almost anal in their preparation for any holiday, I started scouting around for books to take with us months beforehand. This was one that I bought, I think from Waterstones, who had the best selection of travel books I could find. With only 64 pages, (three of which are the index) it?s not as bulky as the usual Lonely Planet guidebooks, but it?s specifically aimed at those driving down (or up) what is supposedly one of the most beautiful drives in the world - the wonderful Highway 1 in California. The most northerly town this covers is Fort Bragg, about halfway between San Francisco and the Redwood national Park to the north. The most southerly is Laguna Beach in Greater Los Angeles. There?s a small paragraph describing each ...

Review of California Highway 1 (Lonely Planet Road Trip) - Paige Penland

California Dreaming

Advantages: Bargain price, even at full price.
Disadvantages: Bottle two creeps up you and pounces like a stalking big cat.

Alright hold your hands up if you thought this was going to be a Mama's and Papa's review? Well it isn't, it's a review of fermented grape juice instead, or to give it its proper name Sainsburys California White Zinfandel. Unfortunately Ciao have decided to put a picture of Blossom Hill's version of this wine at the top of this review, so I've included an actual picture at the bottom. The bottle is unopened as well, aren't you impressed? THE WINERY I've been unable to track down the actual winery that produces this wine for Sainsbury's. The only information I could ascertain comes from the label itself, this informs me that the grapes used to produce this wine are sourced from more than one vineyard. Some coming from California's Central Valley and others from vineyards on the Pacific coast. THE GRAPES Zinfandel is ...
