Dinner @ Quinua - Cocina Peruana

When looking at google maps prior to our trip, I noticed a new Peruvian restaurant on the map.

Not wanting to drive out again for dinner, we decided we would have dinner here at Quinua...

Downtown Petaluma + The Petaluma Pie Company

We thought we would explore downtown Petaluma on foot before calling it a day...

Dating from 1882, the clock tower is fixed atop the three story Masonic Building on the corner of Petaluma Blvd. and Western...

Luther Burbank's Gold Ridge Experimental Farm

Bert thought it would be interesting to visit this place...

which was the Luther Burbank Gold Ridge Experimental Farm.  It was only a few minutes away from Ninja Star Coffee...

Ninja Star Coffee

Caffeine stop number two was here...

This was walking distance from our lunch at nearby Hole in the Wall restaurant (yes, that was the actual name).

I loved the name of this coffee bar, Ninja Star (or shuriken, "sword hidden in user's hand" in Japanese)...

Hole in the Wall Restaurant

Bert also picked out the next place (which was nice because I didn't have to think too much)...

It was a few minutes away from Florence Street where we saw the cool junkyard sculptures of local artist Patrick Amiot.

Our lunch destination was a placed called "Hole in the Wall Restaurant"...

Patrick Amiot Sculptures on Florence Avenue, Sebastopol

Bert read online about a street in Sebastopol where practically every house had a cool sculpture...

The street was Florence Avenue and it also happens to the same street that the artist and his wife/artistic partner live.

If you enter Floreve Ave on the western end, you will see the Tardis...

Joe Matos Cheese Factory

Fresh from our caffeine fix at Flying Goat...

we headed westward to a small cheese farm...

that I first read about on Kirk's blog (post linked at the end)...

The houses from "Shadow of a Doubt" and "Scream", Santa Rosa

We had a light breakfast at our hotel before heading out to Santa Rosa...

Bert had some coffee and we all had mini crepes with jam and sugar (they didn't have Nutella, drat)...

There was a lady making crepes in a parlor area; they were there for the taking. She would make a batch or stack and make more as it ran low.

We had a long day ahead of us and our first stop was just a few minutes north from Petaluma...
