My husband Nathan and I spent a week heading up the California coast.  We began our journey in San Diego, and traveled up to Mendocino County.  Along the way we stopped for some gorgeous hikes in one of my favorite areas in the world; Big Sur.  I fell head over heals in love with the quaint coastal town of Cambria, we treated ourselves to mineral hot springs and mud baths in Calistoga, went wine tasting in Napa and visited friends in the Bay Area.  Finally, we journeyed up to Mendocino to spend to holidays with my family.  This mini vacation reminded me of my enormous love for California!
