Day Four,"Can we buy the crackers?"



Day Four was an all day journey across the lands of California to WINE COUNTRY! We traveled to Sonoma where we wondered around the city and had our first wine tasting. My favorite white wine was there the Blanc. We also looked at several shops, bought earrings and stared at expensive dresses that one day as old ladies we will own. We also noticed the abundance of mustangs in the city. :)













As we continue to travel North to Napa, we stopped at two Vineyards close to one another, the first one is the Black Stallion. We tried 5 different wines and enjoyed them all, we absolutely loved the crackers. They were sweet and
looked like little soft mints. The glasses had stallions on them:






We continued our day down Silverado Trail to our next vineyard Mumm Napa. It was Kate's favorite, because it was so pretty. It had an art gallery and a great view with awesome seating area. The gift shop was fun too. They even had creative bags for the wine and whatever else you wanted to buy there. We saw limousines- but we didn't take the tour with them cause we had a coupon... hehe.


As we left our favorite vineyard we stumbled across this awesome sign in which two girls with awesome accents took our pictures. We were running back and forth with a timer from my camera- so they came in handy!

We then went to Chris' favorite winery where we got her some Chardonnay. This is the World's famous winery and even Oprah has been there!! It wasn't my all time favorite- but it was fun non-the-least.

"Best Napa Winery"

To close the end of the beautiful day together, we went and saw the view from Golden Gate seminary. It was beautiful. We went on Great Circle Road and traveled to see where the boys go to school and then stood and took pictures of the view until we started to freeze. So then we headed home.

Another adventure will take place tomorrow. Get ready! :)

Till tomorrow...
