The Filoli ticket price includes not only a long tiring nature hike but another docent-led two-hour tour of the House and Garden. So being the Chinese-y people that we are, we took advantage of everything we got even though I was thoroughly exhausted walking that strenuous 3 mile 2-hour hike in the heat. [It was a scorcher of a day!]
The House was famously used in the 1980's show, "Dynasty".

Along with flowers, they also have some albino ringneck doves. Emily was thrilled to see some birdies on the property.
