We Went to Napa

 I've never been to Napa before, actually I've never been to California, and since Jason had a meeting in Sonoma last week, we decided to take him up on his offer and meet him out that way for the weekend.


I met Scott and Debbie at the airport in San Fransico, and we headed out.  I saw the Golden Gate Bridge and Alcatraz from the car (it was too foggy for pictures).  So the only things I missed in San Fran were the 2 things my childhood showed me on TV:  The Full House house and people eating Rice-A-Roni on cable cars. (Is it still considered the San Fransico treat?)


In Napa we saw lots of vineyards and grapes



lots of wineries 



and restaurants. (We drove past The French Laundry and had to explain to Jason it was pretty much the most famous restaurant in the United States, which of course, he'd never heard of.)



What most surprised me was the number of wild turkeys we saw.


And this bumper sticker



The weather was nice and cool, but I almost died when I saw the price of gas.

We had lots of fun, and Debbie and I took pictures with different backgrounds:

A vineyard

A cave


Pretty Wallpaper 
(I literally said "let's take a picture with this pretty wallpaper".) 


And the best background of all...
