I’ve been staying in BEnicia California for 4 days now. I’ll be in the area for ten more and I can’t be any happier. The surrounding areas include places like Vallejo, Martinez and various towns named after nuts. Vallejo houses the ferry that goes from Pier 39 (Fisherman’s Wharf) and is apparently a pretty seedy little city that is “hit and miss” on chances of being killed or pummelled. Panorama below.So, yeah it’s beautiful here too.
