Half Moon Bay and Back














We spent the weekend down in Half Moon Bay. Weather was good (foggy in HMB, but sunny and warmer just south of there). We stayed in the Half Moon Bay Inn in old Downtown HMB. The room itself was fine as far as looks and a good bed, etc. But the noise from the bar and kitchen area of the Inn (just to the side and behind the room) was extremely irritating and made it very difficult to sleep. Afraid I can't recommend the place. It got only 2 of 3 concepts correct. Room decor and bed - good. Restaurant - Excellent. Noise - good grief who can sleep around here? Anyway, here are some pictures of the area and from the trip back.

What was the bed bug rating???

No bedbugs except an ant invasion which was repelled with Deet. They really weren't a problem though. We bought a case of wine on the way back and the owner gave us another case for nothing. Good and expensive stuff. The owner's wife was bored and we talked to her for a while and got the wine. Yes!

Thanks Kelly, the shot was a random try with my new camera. I liked it too.

What type of wine is it? I recently sampled a Chteau Lafite Rothschild Pauillac, 1996. It was great. Almost a bit minty?!

Wine is high, dry country varieties. Have to like the heat though. Lots of fantastic Sangiovese, Zinfandels, and many other Spanish varietals. We like it a lot. Not too many whites though.
