          I am also unfamiliar with the name of Valley of the Moon but after seeing the above-shared photos I will plan a tour soon to have some time there and enjoy the beauty of this Valley with my uncle who have keen interest in this sort of places. I am sure it will be fun time for me to spend some time with him because it will be my first chance to go there as well as to travel with Uncle Jerry.

              Well people i have not tried the Valley of the Moon yet. At this time i'm at Boston which is in Massachusetts, but Sonoma Valley is in California. Where i can't go now. So it going to be better luck next time. But defiantly will love to expericne the Sonoma Valley as soon as possible. I just always admired all these kind of things a lot being a traveler and surely won't stop admiring that.
