Napa: Day 1



It is no surprise to me that on the very day I return to California, the Oakland Raiders pull off the biggest upset of the season. Raiders over Eagles 13-9......yeah baby! They better do the same thing next week when Ash and I are cheering them on against the Jets.

After making the 90 minute drive from SF to Napa, Ash and I checked in to our quaint little cottage. After recharging our batteries we headed up CA HWY 29 to Yountville and ate at a local restaurant (Pacific Blues). Ashleigh nibbled on typical California fare (BBQ Salmon sandwich) and I devoured a French Dip.

After strolling down Washington St through Yountville, experiencing a few local shops as well as our first official CA wine testing, the totality of 12 hours of travel hit us like a case of Napa Valley wine. While it is only 5:30pm local time, we are wiped out and look forward to starting out fresh tomorrow.
