Redwood Creek Challenge Trail
I loved the Redwood Creek Challenge Trail. This play area is ostensibly for the younger set, but this old guy really enjoyed climbing up to the lookouts and traversing the rope bridges (which was even more of a workout than those Hyperion Theater steps). Unfortunately, I only caught a glimpse of the storytelling at the Ahwahnee Camp Circle there. I hope to do that next time.
I really liked Grizzly River Run. You feel the rapids very well in these rafts which are smaller than others I've been on. The scenery of the mountain itself is nice and the spinning drop is tons of fun. I also didn't get nearly as wet as I expected - a big positive. After being very disappointed with Disney's last attempt at a raft ride - Kali River Rapids (especially with how short it was), I was a little worried about this one. But it exceeded my expectations and I can't wait to ride again (in the summer).
Mondavi wine tasting and wine by the glass
I like the whole Mondavi winery area. I'm not a wine guy at all (I don't even drink) but I do like to watch the Discovery Channel and I enjoyed the Seasons of the Vine film and the other educational stuff in the area. I especially liked the Wine Country Market there which offers a very large selection of items from cheese to vegetables to salads to accompany the wine tasting.
I also liked the S.S. rustworthy. It's fun to play with the water, all the controls and the noise makers. There's also a lot water play areas around the boat and across from the boat so it's not too crowded on the boat itself.
