Run of the mill |
3801 St Helena Hwy (Hwy 29) Napa Valley, CA 94515 United States +1 707 942 4575 http://www.parks.ca.gov/?page_... |
This restored mill, built in 1846, still works, and visitors can see its massive millstones in action when millers grind flour out of local wheat. Bale Grist flour, literally the "run of the mill," can be purchased at the mill when demonstrations take place. Check for the sign saying "Milling Today." Mill demonstrations are irregularly scheduled because of staffing difficulties. Demonstrations are more frequent on weekends and in summer months. The smallish, tree-filled park surrounding the mill offers a welcome contrast to the car-interned. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Animals + coasters = FUN |
2001 Marine World Parkway Napa Valley, CA 94589 United States +1 707 643 6722 http://www.sixflags.com/parks/... |
Formerly known as Marine World Africa U.S.A, this is the only combination wildlife park, oceanarium, and theme park in the country. Some of its most popular attractions include a killer whale show, water rides and roller coasters, an animal nursery, a family of elephants, and roaming cartoon characters like Bugs Bunny and Batman. There is so much to do, one day is never enough. So take the ferry across the bay or drive 30 minutes north from San Francisco to Vallejo and bring the kids to take in a sea lion show after you get splashed by Shouka, the resident 4,000-pound killer whale. Check out the new thrill ride The Vertical Velocity. Check website for admission prices and discounts. Review © 2007, Wcities |
