Northern California Honeymoon Destination (fun things to do?)?

I will be getting married on September 24th and plan on having my honeymoon in Northern California. The honeymoon will probably last for about a week, so I don’t want to travel anywhere below the Central Coast. I plan on going to maybe the redwood parks and grass valley, but I would like to avoid San Francisco if possible (been there plenty of times already). What would be some fun activities for us newlyweds in that area? I was thinking of maybe taking a train ride but don’t know what the best place would be for that. I was also thinking of visiting a wildlife sanctuary or aviary, but I’m don’t know where any good ones are. Any additional ideas would be great, thanks!
