On our way home we decided to stop in Mill Valley for some people watching and shopping -- Daph kept saying something about shoe stores over and over :)

Mill Valley has renovated their downtown square area. It is a big open bricked and paved square where lots of children play and people sit and talk. At the end of the square is a nice outdoor cafe that is ideal for people watching and enjoying the sun. We had a great lunch there and watched the local excitement unfold in front of us.

Shoes or cars??

After lunch we toured around the various shops. Mill Valley is a fairly well off town and many of the shops are upper end boutiques that cater to the wealthy residents.

One of the cooler things that we saw that day was a unique Jaguar sports car. I'm not sure what model it was but people near us were saying that it was very rare. It looked great.

After some shopping -- sorry Daph no shoe sales -- we decided it was time to head home.

What a great weekend getaway!!
