Gary, The original plan was to go over the bridge and through Muir Wood, down to the beach and then over to Napa in one day. Spending the night in Benicia and then the Cobra Museum just across the bridge in Martinez was added. So.. As to Benicia, it's probably the most important unknown city in California. the first capitol of the state and the original Presidio guarding the entrance to the Estuary. Lots of history and some wonderful sights in this little town.
